The document discusses the design of an inset fed rectangular microstrip patch antenna for UHF RFID applications. It outlines the objectives to design an antenna at 0.92 GHz with increased bandwidth and distance range that is compatible with UHF RFID devices. The methodology involves iteratively simulating variations in antenna parameters like substrate size, feed width and length, inset length and gap to optimize the return loss and impedance matching.

Microstrip Antenna

A microstrip antenna consists of a


metallic patch on one side of a
dielectric substrate and ground plane
on the other side of the substrate.

•The patch acts approximately as a resonant cavity (short circuit walls on


top and bottom, open-circuit walls on the sides).

•If the antenna is excited at a resonant frequency, a strong field is set up


inside the cavity, and a strong current on the surface of the patch. This
produces significant radiation.
Different Parameters of Microstrip
Antenna
L = Length of the Micro-
strip Patch Element

W = Width of the Micro-


strip Patch Element

t= Thickness of Patch

h = Height of the
Dielectric Substrate.
Shapes Of Microstrip Patch
Advantages of Micro-strip Patch
Antenna
Light weight and low volume.
 Low profile planar configuration which can be easily made
conformal to host surface.
 Low fabrication cost, hence can be manufactured in large
quantities.
 Supports both, linear as well as circular polarization.
 Can be easily integrated with microwave integrated circuits
(MICs).
Capable of dual and multi frequency operations.
 Mechanically robust when mounted on rigid surfaces.
 Useful in aircraft, satellites and missile applications.

Literature Review

 Indra Surjati, Yuli KN and Arky Astasari (IEEE 2010): In this paper
microstrip patch antenna is designed using inset feed excitation and
discussed about antenna parameters.
 Ying Hu, David R. Jackson and Jeffery T. Williams (IEEE 2008): This
paper discuss about the input impedance and radiation pattern of the inset-
fed rectangular microstrip patch antenna.

 Mohammad Tariqul (EJSR 2009) : This paper explains the enhancing


bandwidth and size reduction mechanism that improves the performance of
a conventional microstrip patch antenna on a relatively thin substrate (about
0.01 0λ).
Literature Review Cont…

design of RFID reader antenna for UHF RFID handheld systems. In this
paper, two types of compact UHF reader antennas for handheld applications
had been proposed

 S. S. More and M. P. Turuk (IJET&AE 2012) had proposed compact


microstrip antenna for RFID application. In this paper, the author had made
the design with a square patch radiator using co-axial feed.

proposed a compact square, circular and cross shaped slotted patch antenna

Motivation of the Thesis

environmental monitoring and healthcare
applications.

Microstrip Line Feed

In this type of feed technique,


a conducting strip is connected
directly to the edge of the same
substrate to provide a planar
structure.

This kind of feed arrangement


has the advantage that the feed
can be etched on the same
microstrip patch.
Coaxial Feed
Inner conductor of the coaxial
connector extends through the
dielectric and is soldered to the
radiating patch, while the outer
conductor is connected to the
ground plane.
Probe fed Rectangular Microstrip
The main advantage of this type Patch Antenna from top
of feeding scheme is that the feed
can be placed at any desired
location inside the patch in order to
match with its input impedance.
since a hole has to be drilled in
the substrate and the connector
protrudes outside the ground plane,
thus not making it completely Probe fed Rectangular Microstrip
planar for thick substrates . Patch Antenna from side view
Aperture Coupled Feed

In this type of feed technique, the


radiating patch and the microstrip
feed line are separated by the
ground plane. Aperture-coupled feed

Coupling between the patch and


the feed line is made through a slot
or an aperture in the ground plane.

The amount of coupling from the


feed line to the patch is determined
by the shape, size and location of
the aperture.
Proximity Coupled Feed
Two dielectric substrates are used such
that the feed line is between the two
substrates and the radiating patch is on top
of the upper substrate. Proximity-coupled Feed

The major disadvantage of this feed


scheme is that it is difficult to fabricate
because of the two dielectric layers which
need proper alignment.

Also, there is an increase in the overall


thickness of the antenna.
