Improving UWB microstrip antenna using corrugated compact design for wireless communication systems

This work experiments a design of another compact ultra-wideband microstrip antenna for wireless communication systems. the design uses a simple corrugating technique on the radiator patch. likewise,its ground plane is modified to attain ultra-wideband antenna albeit the trifling structure. altogether,the combination measuring only 48 x 30.4 x 1.6 mm3 on etched fr-4 material substrate. its return loss measurement agreeably exhibits an ultra-wideband bandwidth range at approximately 12.8 ghz (3.2 ghz-16 ghz). it shows moderate gain of 2-7 dbi across its operation bandwidth. furthermore,it comes with extra offer of higher radiation efficiency and omni-directional pattern than old-fashioned bigger sized antennas. overall measured results of its performance are agreeable with the simulated one.
