Abstract

This paper detail the effects of asymmetric feeding and meander in the dual-band antenna design. TVBhe antenna used is electrically small rectangular patch with short circuit. The changed in the feeding position (asymmetric feeding) combined with introduction of meander in the patch to obtain miniaturized antenna with news resonates modes. These antennas could be suitably used in some applications that require compacts antenna operating in dual-band frequency. The antenna was simulated with LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic) substrate Dupont 951-AX that presented loss small. To validate the simulated results with commercial software, a prototype was designed in FR4 substrate.
