Abstract :
This work targets design of microstrip patch antenna that will resonate at two different band of frequencies which can be used as elements of array for MIMO system. The proposed dual band antenna operates at ISM band (2.37Ghz-2.48Ghz) and Wimax band (3.46 GHz-3.56 GHz).Bandwidth of operation offered by the given microstrip antenna in ISM band is around 110 Mhz while in Wimax band is 110 Mhz. The designed dual band antenna was optimized using simulation tool CAD-FEKO_v6.2 which works on Method of Moments. Antenna was manufactured on FR4 substrate having εr= 4.4.The results obtained from simulating antenna with the help of simulation software matches with results of manufactured antenna obtained from Antritsu vector network analyzer.
