Shahriar Rahman, M Tanseer Ali . Performance Study of Swastika Shaped Microstrip Patch Antenna loaded with Meta-material Layer. International Journal of Computer Applications. 104, 16 ( October 2014), 8-12. DOI=10.5120/18284-9407
Now-a-days wireless communication has made the world a smaller than it used to be a couple of decades ago. With the evolving technologies emerging, a continuous and seamless connectivity with the artificial planetary objects such as Satellite and ground station has become a demand of time. Hence researchers are relentlessly working on to overcome the challenge of integrating a budget-friendly yet miniature in shape and multimode supporting antenna in wireless devices. Microstrip Patch Antenna, a technology invented in the 70s, can easily accommodate the entire requirement. But there are some trade-off in terms of performance and design. In this particular paper we analyzed the performance of a slotted Swastika Shaped microstrip Patch antenna with meta-material layer. The probe feeding technique and design structure provides the antenna to operate in five different frequencies. The antenna resonates at 9. 11 GHz in X band and 12. 56 GHz, 13. 82 GHz, 14. 71 GHz and 15. 50 GHz in X band with return loss of -17. 84 dB, -13. 86 dB, -13. 52 dB, -20. 4 dB and -15. 9 dB respectively of proposed antenna have been examined and discussed.
