Abstract

The proposed enhanced U-shaped microstrip antenna is conceived with the aim of meeting the emerging needs of super wideband (SWB) applications in contemporary wireless communication systems. An efficient upgraded U-shaped patch design, in combination with substrate enhancements and impedance matching methods, is introduced in this work to remarkably increase the operational bandwidth, gain, and radiation efficiency of antenna. The antenna aims SWB achievement with the help of optimized dimensions and it is designed in such a way that it minimizes ground wave losses. It maximizes the impedance matching over a frequency range of 2 MHz to 20 GHz. Through various simulation outputs and experimental verifications, the antenna designed demonstrates excellent performance with a broad impedance bandwidth greater than 100% and the radiation patterns that are stable beyond entire frequency band. This work illustrates that the enhanced U-shaped microstrip antenna can attain the needs of next-generation communication technologies with specific criteria, and it establishes an efficient solution to SWB systems without sacrificing performance, cost, or size issues.
