Therefore, it has become to have compact microstrip antenna (MSA) with a wide band to avoid employing multiple antennas to fulfil requirement of the users. The MSA is a revolution in the field of wireless applications due to its low cost, ease of installation, performance and low profile structure which make it a high quality contender. for many communication equipment. The main objective of this proposed work is to develop a compact broadband microstrip antenna with DGS for wireless applications in the frequency range of 2-7 GHz. The proposed antenna is designed using TLM model and is simulated and optimized using HFSSv.15 with a centre frequency of 4GHz. Proposed antenna is used to operate at the frequency range of 2.73-6.50 GHz in wireless applications like WiMAX (3.6 GHz), Hi-LAN (5.15-5.35 GHz), WLAN IEEE802a (5.2 GHZ), and DSRC for a car to car communication (5.850-5.925 GHz). A 6-6.50 GHz might be used for future 5G communication and other application as CCTV, Camera and Cmax. The proposed antenna is fabricated on a FR4 substrate having thickness 1.6 mm and loss tangent of 0.02. The fabricated antenna has dimensions 32×22×1.6 mm3which makes it compact in nature. The parameters in terms of reflection coefficient and VSWR for the proposed antenna (fabricated) are measured and compared with the simulated ones, which show good agreement. The proposed antenna is also compared with the earlier designed antennas. The measured broad bandwidth with reflection coefficient below -10 dB is found to be 4500 MHz in the frequency range from 2.70- 7.2 GHz. Simulated peak gain of 5.22 dBi and radiation efficiency of 90-98% for the proposed antenna in the frequency range from 2.73 - 6.50 GHz are observed. The proposed antenna has a stable radiation pattern in both E and H planes.ennullCompact broadband microstrip antenna with DGS for wireless applicationsThesis
