Analysis and Design of A Novel Small Microstrip Patch Antenna ABSTRACT:Microstrip antennas have been widely used in communication systems.Design and analysis of a wideband U-shaped parasitic Microstrip Patch Antenna which is coupled by the main patch and U-shaped parasitic patches is presented in this paper.Two parasitic elements are incorporated into the radiating edges of a rectangular patch whose length and width are and , respectively,in order to achieve wide bandwidth with relatively small size.The proposed antenna is designed and fabricated on a small size ground plane () for application of compact transceivers. The measured bandwidth is 1.5 GHz (4.78–6.28 GHz) with two separate resonant frequencies at 5.12 and 6.08 GHz. The measured radiation patterns are similar to those of a conventional patch antenna with slightly higher gains of 6.4 dB and 5.2 dB at each resonant frequency. KEYWORD:Parasitic patch antenna, U-shaped parasitic patches, wide bandwidth. 1. INTRODUCTION In high-performance aircraft, spacecraft, satellite, and missile applications, where size,weight, cost, performance, ease of installation, and aerodynamic profile are constraints,low-profile antennas may be required. Presently there are many other government and commercial applications, such as mobile radio and wireless communications, that have similar specifications. To meet these requirements, microstrip antennas [1]–[38] can be used. These antennas are low profile, conformable to planar and nonplanar surfaces, simple and inexpensive to manufacture using modern printed-circuit technology,mechanically robust when mounted on rigid surfaces, compatible with MMIC designs,and when the particular patch shape and mode are selected, they are very versatile in terms of resonant frequency, polarization, pattern, and impedance. In addition,by adding loads between the patch and the ground plane, such as pins and varactor diodes, adaptive elements with variable resonant frequency, impedance, polari
