Abstract
In this article, microstrip patch antenna loaded with two symmetrical vertical notches and shorting pin is investigated for dualband operation using circuit theory concept based on modal expansion cavity model. It is found that the antenna resonates at 2.84 and 6.33 GHz for upper and lower resonance frequencies respectively. The bandwidth of the compact notch loaded antenna at lower resonance frequency is 9.94 % (theoretical) and 6.67 % (simulated) whereas at upper resonance frequency, it is 12.99 % (theoretical) and 11.59 % (simulated). The compact notch loaded antenna characteristics are compared with other proposed radiating structures. The theoretical results are compared with IE3D simulation as well as reported experimental results and they are in close agreement.
