Abstract

In this paper, a compact N-shaped multiband microstrip patch antenna is designed using Finite Element Method (FEM) based simulator HFSSv.13 software. The proposed antenna is designed using FR-4 epoxy substrate having dielectric constant of 4.4 and thickness of 1.6mm. The results of proposed antenna has been analyzed and discussed in terms of impedance bandwidth, input impedance and radiation characteristics. The antenna can efficiently support 4 different bands with their center frequencies as 1.70 GHz, 2.38GHz, 3.82GHz and 5.06GHz, coming under the bands of different wireless applications such as GSM, Bluetooth, WLAN/WiFi, WiMAX-II and some defense applications such as radio navigation. The desired band shift is further obtained by introducing a rectangular notch.
