Analysis of Slits Loaded Compact Printed Antenna for Multifrequency Operation
Keywords:
Slits, multi-frequency, size reduction, wireless communicationAbstract
In this paper, investigation of a single layer, single feed printed antenna has been carried out using method of moment based IE3D software. Triple narrow slits are introduced on the radiating patch to reduce the size of the antenna by lowering the resonant frequency. Multiple resonant frequencies are also obtained by cutting the narrow slits. The proposed antenna offers 63% size reduction in comparison to the conventional microstrip antenna with same patch area. A detailed analysis of reflection coefficient, gain, directivity, radiation efficiency and radiation pattern including surface current distribution is presented in this paper.
