| Abstract | ||
| A small size multi-wideband patch antenna with seven-segment slots is presented. The multi-wideband operation and size reduction are manipulated through the use of the slot loading technique. Etching sevensegment slots into the conventional patch antenna enhances its performance for multi-wideband applications. The geometry that is constructed by the slots controls the resonance frequencies and their bandwidths, of the antenna. The software IE3D is employed to analyze and simulate the proposed antenna. Some of the results are confirmed using the HFSS software. The results illustrate that the proposed antenna is capable to achieve return loss (RL) less than -10 dB and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) < 2 in up to eight frequency bands, in the frequency range 2 - 8 GHz. | ||
