Abstract

This report presents the design of Parasitic Meander-line Antenna at ISM band which operates at frequency of 2.4 GHz. The meander line antenna is classified as microstrip antenna and it is designed using a single layer known as microstrip patch. The proposed antenna is designed with the intention of designing a meander line antenna which emphasize the reduction in size and also with the aim of increasing the directivity of the antenna. Throughout the designing process, there are three different structures of parasitic meander line antenna are completed at the end of the project. The three structures are known as Skewed Up Parasitic Meander Line Antenna (Design I), Skewed Down Parasitic Meander Line Antenna (Design III) and the last is Diamond Shaped Parasitic Meander Line Antenna (Design II). The antenna is designed and simulated using Microwave Office software which is known as Computer Simulation Technology (CST). It is fabricated on double-sided FR-4 printed circuit board using chemical etching technique. Then the fabricated antennas are measured using indoor measurement techniques for return loss, polarization, gain, radiation pattern and bandwidth. The antennas are measured using network analyzer, spectrum analyzer and trainer.
