Abstract
Antenna, which also called an aerial, is a conductor that can transmit, send and receive signals such as microwave, radio or satellite signals. In transmission, a radio transmitter supplies an oscillating radio frequency electric current to the antenna's terminals, and the antenna radiates the energy from the current as electromagnetic waves (radio waves). A microstrip or patch antenna is a low-profile antenna that has a number of advantages over other antennas. It is lightweight, inexpensive, and easy to integrate with accompanying electronics. However, microstrip patch antennas suffer from more drawbacks as compared to conventional antennas such as low efficiency and low gain. Therefore, in this project, grapheme based rectangular microstrip patch antenna is used due to the fact that graphene has higher electrical conductivity compare to copper. Two patch antennas are designed, by using copper and graphene as patch material. Simulations (using CST software) are done to analyze the performance of both patch antennas.
