Slotted Microstrip Antenna For Miniaturization

This paper represents a slotted microstrip antenna for miniaturization and enhancing bandwidth that improves the antenna performances. The resonant frequency of the proposed antenna is 3.5 GHz which drops down to 2.72 GHz when the slots are introduced on the radiating surface. Here, we have used three consecutive slots to achieve miniaturized antenna. The main aim of this paper is the enhancement of bandwidth of 73% which is very encouraging as compared with basic microstrip antenna. The optimized slot dimension of the antenna has been achieved by the process of simulation. The simulation of the proposed antenna is done by using Zeland make IE3D electromagnetic simulator.
