Abstract :
A triangular microstrip patch antenna is proposed for multiband applications. The proposed antenna is designed using a chip capacitor and T-shaped slit. Input impedance of the proposed antenna can be varied by changing the value of capacitor in the T-shaped slit. It can produce multi-resonant modes and yield return losses better than 16 dB in 1.97 ~ 2.16 GHz. The peak gains of the antenna present 2.95 and 3.15 dBi at both ends of the above frequency range. Details of the antenna design and experimental results are presented.
