【 摘 要 】

With day to day advancement wireless and communication industry, a single device needs to operate at multi frequency and enormous high bandwidth. Microstrip antenna is only to fit in this. A small rotated square slot antenna with a parasitic patch for bandwidth enhancement is proposed and investigated. A simple 50- microstrip line is used to excite the slot. A rotated square slot resonator with center parasitic patch is considered as reference geometry. The rotated square slot antenna exhibits two resonances .By embedding a parasitic patch into the center of the rotated square slot, the lower resonant frequency is decreased and the higher resonant frequency is increased. Thus, broadband characteristic of the wideslot antenna is achieved. The measured results demonstrate that this structure exhibits a wide impedance bandwidth, which is over 85% for dB ranging from 2.19 to 5.95 GHz. Also, a stable and Omni directional radiation pattern is observed within the operating bandwidth. In this design, a smaller ground plane is considered compared to the reference antenna (rotated square slot antenna with the parasitic center patch). The proposed antenna has a strong application in UWB and WiMax devices. The IEEE 802.16 working group has been established a new operating band name as Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave access (WiMax). WiMax has three allocated frequency bands. The low band (2.5-2.69 GHz), the middle band (3.2-3.8 GHz) and the upper band (5.2-5.8 GHz).
