Abstract

In microstrip patch of short-range communication system, an antenna is very important part that used to enhance and strength the signals. However, in many cases of short-range communication system, the gain of the designed antenna that used is quite low so that it results in low power and affect the target frequency to transmit and receive signal in well condition. This project aims to design an antenna that provides a high gain so that the transmitted signal and efficiency of radiating the signal would be increased. A small microstrip patch antenna is designed in CST Studio Suite software. Optimization in CST software for the microstrip antenna designed is done prior to fabrication process that is carried in the laboratory. Once the simulation and fabrication processes are done, comparison of the antennas performance is carried, in terms of antenna parameters such as gain, return loss, bandwidth, efficiency and radiation pattern. The microstrip antenna is designed for GSM and short-range communication applications operating at frequency of 868 MHz with return loss less than -10 dB and wide bandwidth between 800-900 MHz. the produced antenna can be come up with short-range communication system that can be used to power the low power devices such as mobile phones and wireless sensors used under the sea so that batteries do not have to be replaced frequently which will save environment of batteries waste and save a lot of money spent for replacing the low power devices batteries as well.
