Abstract :
In this paper, a design and analysis of compact probe fed slot antenna is presented. The proposed antenna has simple structure consisting Ω-shape on a rectangular patch, the overall dimension of the antenna come around 36mmX26mmX5.127mm and fed by 50Ω probe feed. The impedance matching and radiation characteristics of the designed structure are investigated by using MOM based IE3D™. The simulation results show that the antenna impedance bandwidth of the antenna reaches about 31% (4.25GHz-5.8GHz) with return loss better than -10 dB over the chosen frequency spectrum. The proposed antenna gain of 9dBi and 7dBi are achieved. Its radiation patterns are also studied.
