    # $icrostrip patch antenna is a narro7band, 7ide@beam antenna fabricated by etching theantenna element pattern in metal trace bonded to an insulating dielectric substrate, such as a

    printed circuit board, 7ith a continuous metal layer bonded to the opposite side of thesubstrate 7hich forms a ground plane as sho7n in the Fig .

    The Fig /. sho7s a patch antenna in its basic form? a flat plate o!er a ground plane usuallya >& board-. The center conductor of a coa; ser!es as the feed probe to coupleelectromagnetic energy in or out of the patch. The electric field distribution of a rectangular

    patch e;cited in its fundamental mode is also indicated .

    F!% 6.45 # Side !ie7 of $icrostrip >atch #ntenna.

    The electric field is 8ero at the center of the patch, ma;imum positi!e- at one side, andminimum negati!e- on the opposite side. It should be mentioned that the minimum andma;imum continuously change side according to the instantaneous phase of the appliedsignal. The electric field does not stop abruptly at the patch s periphery as in a ca!ityG rather,the fields e;tend the outer periphery to some degree. These field e;tensions are kno7n asfringing fields and cause the patch to radiate. Some popular analytic modeling techniques for

    patch antennas are based on this leaky ca!ity concept. Therefore, the fundamental mode of arectangular patch is often denoted using ca!ity theory as the T$ 0 mode.

    Since this notation frequently causes confusion, 7e 7ill briefly e;plain it. T$ stands for trans!ersal magnetic field distribution. This means that only three field components areconsidered instead of si;. The field components of interest are? the electric field in the 8direction and the magnetic field components in ; and y direction using a &artesian coordinate

    system, 7here the ; and y a;es is parallel 7ith the ground plane and the 8 a;is is perpendicular.

    In general, the modes are designated as T$ nm8. The 8 !alue is mostly omitted since theelectric field !ariation is considered negligible in the 8 a;is. 'ence T$ nm remains 7ith n andm the field !ariations in ; and y direction. The field !ariation in the y direction impedance7idth direction- is negligibleG thus m is 0. #nd the field has one minimum to ma;imum!ariation in the ; direction resonance length direction-G Thus n is in the case of thefundamental. 'ence the notation is T$ 0 A/, 9 .

    The main ad!antage of this type of feeding scheme is that the feed can be placed at anylocation inside the patch in order to match 7ith its input impedance. This feed method is easyto fabricate and has lo7 spurious radiation. 'o7e!er, a ma

    #ntenna parameters are used to characteri8e performance of an antenna 7hen designing andmeasuring antennas. In this Section, terms like band7idth, radiation pattern, gain,

    polari8ation, and input impedance are e;plained.

    3.4 1an'2!'t(

    Band7idth is a fundamental antenna parameter. It describes the range of frequencies o!er 7here the antenna parameters, such as input impedance, radiation pattern, polari8ation, sidelobe le!el and gain is 7ithin an acceptable !alue from those at the center frequency. %ften,the desired band7idth is one of the determining parameters used to decide upon an antenna.For instance, many antenna types ha!e !ery narro7 band7idths and cannot be used for 7ideband operation A2.

    'o7e!er the band7idth requirements for the thesis 7ork 7as not !ery strict many antennas 7ith a narro7 band7idth 7ere selected to be studied in this 7ork.

    3.6 Polar!>at!on

    The polari8ation of an electromagnetic field is defined in terms of the direction of its electricfield !ector. If the electric field !ector is al7ays in one plane, then it is said to be linearly

    polari8ed. Special cases are !ertical polari8ation for the electric field !ector in a !ertical plane, and hori8ontal polari8ation for the electric field !ector in a hori8ontal plane typically7ith reference to the surface of the earth-. In general, the electric field !ector rotates about aline parallel to the direction of propagation and its tip traces out an ellipse. This is kno7n aselliptical polari8ation. &ircular polari8ation &>- is a special case of elliptical polari8ation in7hich the trace of the electric field !ector is a circle. Because the electric field !ector tra!els

    as a 7a!e, the actual pattern is that of a spiral 7ith an elliptical or circular cross section. The polari8ation of the recei!ing : antenna must be matched to the polari8ation of the transmitantenna in order to e;tract ma;imum po7er from the field. If the antenna polari8ation is

    perpendicular to the field polari8ation such as !ertical !s. hori8ontal or right hand !s. lefthand circular- the antenna 7ill not e;tract any po7er from the incident 7a!e.

    C!r $lar Polar!>at!on

    In general, circularly polari8ed $icrostrip antennas can be cate gori8ed into t7o types according to the number of feed points? namely single fed and dual@fed antennas.The basic configurations of a dual fed &> antenna are illustrated in Fig 9. a-.

    Fig9. a- sho7s the antennas that are fed 7ith an e;ternal polari8er, such as a 9 dB hybrid or offset feed line. Insuch an antenna system, the polari8er e;cites t7o linearly polari8ed orthogonal 7a!es. The fields due to theseorthogonal 7a!es ha!e equal amplitude and are 40H out of phase. Therefore, an antenna e;cited by an e;ternal

    polari8er acts as a &> 7a!e radiator. Both the impedance and a;ial ratio characteristics of dual@fed antennas are broader than those of single fed antennas because the 9 dB hybrid is typically broadband.

    %n the other hand, single fed circularly polari8ed patches are !ery attracti!e, because they can be arrayedand fed like any linearly polari8ed patch. The basic configurations of a single@fed antenna are sho7n in Fig9. b-. Dual@fed &> patches require an additional circuit, 7hich makes the o!erall si8e of the radiatingelement quite large, thus limiting the frequency performance of the array because of grating lobes. Single@fed &> patches ha!e been e;tensi!ely e!aluated in the literature, 7here they are sho7n to be e;tremely

    narro7band antennas band7idth or less-. The most frequently used types of single@fedcircularly polari8ed patches are the slotted patch, the notched patch and the patch.

    In Fig 9. b-,represents Sthe si8e of the perturbation segment as sho7n at the edges of

    single@fed circularly polari8ed $icrostrip #ntennas and S denotes the area of the antenna.The t7o orthogonal JdegenerateK-ntot7omodesbytheeffectmodesofthe are

    perturbation.The radiatedsegmentfieldscaused Sbythese t7o modes are perpendicular to each other and ha!e equal amplitude, but are 40H out of phase if the si8e of the

    perturbation segment for an antenna is ad @7a!e radiator 7ithout using ane;ternal polari8er. Due to the perturbation, the patch surface currents in the ; and y directionsare simultaneously affected, 7hich makes the manufacturing tolerance critical for &>operation. To a!oid the need for fine tolerance, in this study the simple &> design technique7as applied to single probe feed elliptical microstrip antennas. In an elliptical microstrip

    patch antenna, the feed position is located along the 12H line bet7een the long and shorta;is of the elliptical patch, in order to simultaneously e;cite the t7o nearly degeneratemodes corresponding to the long and short a;es of the elliptical patch. The impedancematching is achie!ed by !arying the feed position that is by mo!ing the feed along the 12Hline bet7een the patch edge and the patch center A2 .

    3.3 Ret$rn Lo##

    (eturn loss is an important parameter 7hen connecting an antenna. It is related to impedancematching and the ma;imum transfer of po7er theory. It is also a measure of the effecti!enessof an antenna to deli!er po7er from the source to the antenna. The return loss ()- is defined

    by the ratio of the incident po7er of the antenna to the po7er reflected back from theantenna of the source the mathematical e;pression is?
