Abstract

In this paper, a new design of dual slit equilateral triangular shaped microstrip antenna approach is proposed with compactness in patch size of antenna. Dual slit cut equilateral triangular microstrip patch antenna is designed on a substrate which provides wideband characteristics compared to without slit and single slit cut equilateral triangular shaped microstrip antenna. The method of moments based HFSS software has been used for generation and analysis of dual slit cut microstrip antenna. Theoretical and simulated results are presented and compared.
