Abstract

This paper presents the optimization and design of a wearable multiband microstrip patch antenna using jeans as a substrate material for wireless communication applications. The proposed antenna operates at 2.4 GHz, 5.2 GHz, and 5.6 GHz frequency bands, which are essential for Wi-Fi and other wireless standards. The antenna design incorporates a rectangular slot and patch to achieve triple-band operation with a full ground plane, ensuring good isolation, directional radiation patterns, and high gain. Simulations and measurements were conducted using CST STUDIO SUITE software and standard laboratory equipment to validate the antenna's performance. Results demonstrate return losses greater than -10 dB with bandwidths of 72.5 MHz, 169.1 MHz, and 127.7 MHz for each band, respectively. The antenna achieves gain values of 0.886 dBi, 6.38 dBi, and 5.27 dBi for the 2.4 GHz, 5.2 GHz, and 5.6 GHz bands. Flexibility tests confirm the antenna's suitability for wearable applications, maintaining performance despite bending. The proposed antenna shows significant potential for integration into wearable devices, providing a reliable and efficient solution for modern wireless communication needs.

Abstract

The need for dedicated communication keeps increasing. A technique to realize that is by using multibeam radiation. A Beamforming Network (BFN) is required to enable multibeam capability in array antennas. This study uses the Rotman Lens as BFN in the frequency of S-Band. The common problem with using Rotman Lens is that its conventional design size is quite large, mainly due to its transition leg ports. Transition leg ports are important to ensure the matching impedance between the lens and the array antenna ports the lens and the beam ports or the lens and the dummy port. The goal of this study is to reduce the size of Rotman lens transition legs by implementing simple and uniform size of slots or Defected Ground Structures (DGSs) methods for the ports of the Rotman Lens BFN. The method can minimize the length of the transition leg and allow the BFN to operate efficiently. The results revealed that the use of the same double-rectangular DGS technique and the same double-rectangular slots in ports can reduce the size of the Rotman lens. Compared to the conventional methods, the proposed method can reduce the size to almost 85 percent from its original size for this S-Band implementation. The other performances of the BFN, besides the size reduction, are not degraded by implementing the proposed methods.
