1. Designing and Manufacturing Microstrip Antenna for Wireless Communication at 2.4 GHz Monday December 27, 2010 Presented for Undergraduate Thesis ByRachmansyah

2.  Background  Problem  Antenna Design & Manufacture  Testing & Result  Conclusions Outlines

3. Microstrip antenna :  Simple  Easy with MIC  Low cost  Low profile Background

4.  How to manufacture a microstrip patch antenna for wireless communication at 2.4 GHz ?  Whether the microstrip antenna can be used as client antenna in computer? Problem

5. Feed Technique Coaxial Feed The Coaxial feed or probe feed is a very common technique used for feeding Microstrip patch antennas

6. Comparing Feed Techniques

7. Transmission Line Model Method of Analysis

8. Design Specification  fo = 2.4 GHz  Єr = 1.03  h = 12 mm  Feed Technique : Coaxial Feed  Method of Analysis : Transmission Line Model Antenna Design

9. By transmission line calculations, we get :  L = 46.2 mm  W = 64 mm  Lg = 118 mm  Wg = 134 mm

10. Feed Point Locations

11. Simulation

15. Testing and Results

19.  The signal strength (Gain) of microstrip patch antenna compared with omnidirectional antenna is 15 dB.  The radius of microstrip patch antenna is about ±200m  The Half Power Beamwidth of microstrip patch antenna is 40°  There is still back lobe in radiation pattern of microstrip antenna  Microstrip patch antenna can be used as client antenna in computer Conclusions
