Abstract:
In this article a broadband microstrip patch antenna is designed with slit incorporated in the rectangular ground plane. The effect of simulated return loss, swept gain and radiation pattern of the proposed antenna have been
obtained due to variation of slit dimensions. The proposed antenna is designed by using FR4 substrate with thickness 1.6 mm and dielectric constant 2.4. The proposed antenna is simulated using Ansoft designer software. The results
show a large bandwidth, high gain and minimum return loss. The simulated results are in good parity with experimental data. The proposed antenna is very use full for broadband wireless communication systems.
