Design A Circular Patch

This document describes the design of a 1x2 circular patch array antenna. It discusses that a patch array antenna is made up of multiple patch antennas fabricated onto a printed circuit board using photolithography. The document provides the advantages of patch array antennas, such as ease of manufacturing and enhanced directivity. It then details the design process, which includes calculating the radius and feedline width of each circular patch based on the operating frequency and substrate properties. Configuration diagrams and final design specifications are also presented.

PATCH ARRAY ANTENNA

• A patch antenna is a type of radio antenna with a low profile, which can be mounted on a flat
surface. It is a kind of internal antenna on a PCB.
• Patch Array Antenna means an antenna fabricated using photolithographic techniques on a
printed circuit board (PCB).
• It is used in satellite communication, military purposes, GPS, mobile, missile systems etc as
due to its compact shape and light weight, less complexity and it’s ease of implementation
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
• Advantages
• Ease of manufacturing
• Enhanced directivity, and execute various other functions which would be complex with single element
• Microstrip patch antennas are efficient radiators.
• It has a support for both linear and circular polarization.
• Easy in integration with microwave integration circuits

• Disadvantages:
• Low impedance bandwidth.
• Low gain.
• Extra radiation occurs from its feeds and junctions.
• Excitation of surface waves.
• Size of micro strip antenna comes in both advantages and
DESIGN

• One of the important parameters for the design of a Microstrip patch antenna is the Frequency of
operation (fr).
• ISM Systems uses the frequency range 2.4GHz - 2.5GHz. Hence the designed antenna must be competent to
function in this frequency range. The resonant frequency chosen for our design is 2.4 GHz

Radius of Patch(a) is calculated by: Width of feedline is calculated using:


• we selected the value of the substrate (FR4) parameters relative Dielectric constant (εr) to be
4.4 and the substrate thickness (h) to be 1.66 mm.
• We have taken the inter elemental
Spacing to be 62.5 mm
• Using a microstrip calculater, we got
the dimensions as
• For a single circular patch optimal feed location is usually at one third distance from centre of the
patch. The feed location is calculated using the formula:

• We used the same values of height of the dielectric substrate (h)


and the same dielectric material (FR4) at the design frequency
