Gain Enhancement of Novel Microstrip Patch Antenna Using Meandered Rectangular Shape for Bio-Medical Applications

Abstract

Aim: This novel research aligns to build a Meandered monopole antenna with high gain in the frequency range of 3.0 GHz to 12.0 GHz. Materials and Methods: Group 1 is the gain and frequency of microstrip patch antenna (MPA) using Meandered rectangular monopole antenna is Group 1 with sample size (n = 26) having FR4 Epoxy substrate. The gain and frequency of the Group 2 is assigned to rectangular MPA with a sample size of 26. Results: The novel Meandered Rectangular monopole antenna has significantly higher gain of -5.45 dB to 40.35 dB than the rectangular patch antenna having gain of -4.16 dB to -8.66 dB. The innovative Meandered Rectangular monopole antenna's best frequency for highest gain had significance of roughly 0.0056 at 12.0 GHz. For rectangular shaped microstrip patch antenna, maximum gain was at the frequency of 3.0 GHz with significance of about 0.492. Conclusion: The innovative Meandered Rectangular monopole antenna gives higher augmentation of gain at 12.0 GHz range than rectangular patch antenna within the confines of this study. © 2023 IEEE.
