Abstract
Wide bandwidth compact rectangular and equilateral triangular microstrip antennas employing slots cut bow-tie shape ground plane profile are proposed. Amongst all the designs, patch employing three rectangular slots cut bow-tie shape ground plane yields optimum results. Using the rectangular patch, against conventional ground plane design, increase in bandwidth by 20%, resonance frequency, substrate thickness, and patch area reduction by 32%, 0.034λg, and 61.12%, are respectively achieved. In equilateral triangular patch design, a three rectangular slots cut bow-tie shape ground plane configuration shows bandwidth increase by 30%, and substrate thickness, fundamental mode frequency, and patch size reduction by 0.027λg, 16.4%, and 36.28%, respectively. Proposed designs exhibit broadside radiation pattern with broadside gain of above 5 dBi.
