Abstract :
The paper proposes optimization of E-shape antenna for bandwidth enhancement. The antenna is designed to wide bandwidth. Mixed potential integral equations (MPIE) in conjunction with Rao, Wilton and Glisson triangular discretization (RWG basis function) are utilized. The antenna characteristics are analyzed by MOM method. Considering the fact that smaller area is preferable, the technique of modifying the topology of patches is adopted. The basic idea is to modify the structure and see the effects. It has the advantage of wide bandwidth and ease of integration. Height (h) of substrate is 5mm. The return loss is below -10db and (VSWR<;2) is achieved. The antenna polarization is linear. The antenna finds its application in mobile networks, base antennas, IEEE 802.11 a and j standards.
