Computer Aided Design and Simulation of a Multiobjective Microstrip Patch Antenna for Wireless Applications

The utility and attractiveness of microstrip antennas has made it ever more important to find ways to precisely determine the radiation patterns of these antennas. Taking benefit of the added processing power of today’s computers, electromagnetic simulators are emerging to perform both planar and 3D analysis of high-frequency structures. One such tool studied was IE3D, which is a program that utilizes method of moment. This paper makes an investigation of the method used by the program, and then uses IE3D software to construct microstrip antennas and analyze the simulation results. The antenna offers good electrical performance and at the same time preserves the advantages of microstrip antennas such as small size, easy to manufacture as no lumped components are employed in the design and thus, is low cost; and most importantly, it serves multiple wireless applications.
