Abstract

An increasing amount of attention is being paid to Microstrip Patch Antenna (MPA) because it is both compact and very effective. As a result of the growth of current wireless communication systems, there has been a considerable increase in the need for antennas that are not only lightweight and small but also adaptable and capable of functioning across many frequency bands. Specifically, the exploitation of U-slot microstrip patch antennas for multiband applications is the primary topic of this research, which provides a complete evaluation of these antennas. It has been established that the U-slot arrangement, which is a popular modification to typical microstrip patch antennas, is effective in increasing the bandwidth of the antenna and offering flexibility for multiband operation. The first part of the paper is an overview of the basic concepts that underlie microstrip patch antennas, as well as the reason for the incorporation of U-slot designs. Detailed discussions are held on the most important design parameters, which include slot size, location, and shape. These discussions focus on the influence that these factors have on the performance of the antenna in terms of bandwidth, gain, and radiation characteristics.
