@article{(Open Science Index):https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10008628, title = {Comparison of CPW Fed Microstrip Patch Antennas with Varied Ground Structures for Fixed Satellite Applications}, author = {Deepanshu Kaushal and T. Shanmuganantham}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {This paper draws a comparison between two microstrip patch antennas having different ground structures. The designs utilize 45 mm x 40 mm x 1.6 mm FR4 epoxy substrate (relative permittivity of 4.4 and dielectric loss tangent of 0.02) and CPW feeding technique. The design 1 uses conducting partial ground plates along the two sides of the radiating X’mas tree shaped patch. The design 2 utilizes an X’mas tree shaped slotted ground structure that features a circular radiating patch. A comparative analysis of results of both designs has been carried. The two designs are intended to serve the fixed satellite applications in X and Ku band respectively. }, journal = {International Journal of Electronics and Communication Engineering}, volume = {11}, number = {2}, year = {2017}, pages = {219 - 224}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10008628}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/122}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 122, 2017}, }
