Abstract :
A Quadruple Microstrip Meander slot Antenna is presented for Wireless application. The Antenna also has the capability to used as the receiving antenna in an energy scavenging system. RF energy scavenging which involves the generation of a small amount of the electrical power to drive circuits in wireless communication electronics devices. The antenna is designed to operate at four bands which is useful for wireless applications. Microstrip patch antenna with quadruple behavior of antenna achieve better return loss of -13.7 db at 2.28 Ghz frequency. HFSS software is used for simulation.
