Abstract: This letter describes that analysis of rectangular micro strip patch antenna with different feeding positions & bandwidth improvement. The design of the proposed antenna is performed with FR4-epoxy dielectric substrate material with variable thickness. It is observed that the position of feeding can be taken symmetrically by changing feeding locations. Different thickness of substrate (h=2, 3, 4, 5, 6 mm) have been taken to increase the bandwidth. The simulated results for height h=4mm have bandwidth=113MHz. The proposed rectangular micro strip antenna is at the operating frequency of 2.4GHz. The configurations proposed are simulated & analysed by Ansoft HFSS. The VSWR, gain pattern and return loss performance are used for the analysis of the configuration.
Keywords: Bandwidth, Dielectric Substrate, Rectangular Patch, Return Loss.
