Design and Analysis of Loop Antenna for Wideband Operations

Wireless communication is mainly dependent on the antenna. There are many types of antennas developed for various applications. Wide band antennas are essential for modern communication applications as these are operating with different carriers. In this paper a wideband antenna is designed and analyzed numerically for 6–18 GHz. This antenna covers X-band and Ku-band. The proposed antenna is simple square loop constructed with thin flat sheets. The traditional loop antenna is resonant and is thin. But the proposed antenna operates in microwave frequency range and offers wideband operation
