Abstract

To design a compact microstrip patch antenna for use in wireless/cellular devices. A typical cellular phone measures about 14.5 cm by 4.5 cm. Hence the antenna designed must be able to fit in such a cellular phone. I have to design a compact microstrip patch antenna having a center frequency of 2.5 GHz accordingly to reach the design and results. The ground plane dimensions for the patch antenna has been designed to be 28 mm by 28 mm and the patch dimensions are 28 mm by 28 mm. Hence the antenna is compact enough to be placed in a typical cellular phone. I have to plot the radiation pattern for the desired antenna orientation and back lobe radiation also to be reduced.
