Design and Simulation of Hexagonal Shape Antenna with ‘S’ and ‘A’ shaped slot for Wireless Communication Applications
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this investigation, hexagonal shaped microstrip antenna using Coplanar Waveguide Feed (CPW) for wireless communication applications is presented. The proposed antenna consists of hexagonal shape patch embedded with ‘S’ and ‘A’ shaped slots. The parametric study is performed to understand the characteristics of the proposed antenna. The antenna exhibits higher frequency band and impedance bandwidth is 2.99 GHz ranging from 4.89 GHz to 8.48 GHz covering higher frequency bands of wireless local area network (WLAN) and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX). The various antenna parameters like S-parameters, current distribution and radiation pattern are studied.
