Description
Summary:The continuous demand for high bit rate wireless communication links is growing dramatically, due to the technical requirements of this high bit rates link the data should be spread over relatively wide frequency band, however these wide frequency bands have to be supported by suitable antennas, in this project wideband antenna is designed to operate between 2.4 and 11 GHz, in the design the overall dimensions and the structure of the antenna had been taken into account in order to insure that the design is compact in size as well as increasing to possibility of impeded it into portable devices. Due to the size and configuration requirements microstrip planar antenna structure is chosen and many techniques had been employed in order to enhance the antenna bandwidth. The design had been performed using computer simulation technology software CST, after that the antenns had been fabricated.
