Abstract
—Antennas are the most important unit in almost all wireless communications, which played the key of transmitting the radiating electromagnetic waves after converting it from electrical signal. In this paper, designed an antenna that is capable to operate at frequencies between 12 GHz – 18 GHz for Ku band, and 26.5 GHz – 40 GHz for Ka band. This antenna was designed to overcome the narrow bandwidth, low gain, and large size of most satellite application antennas. By using a square shaped patch on a 4.3 dielectric constant substrate, modified and optimized the dimensions of the patch element, this antenna operated on dual-band frequencies between 12 GHz – 18 GHz and 26.5 GHz – 40 GHz, which satisfies the required bandwidth for satellite application. The antenna design was simulated using CST Microwave Studio software to analyze and evaluate the performance of the antenna design visibility.
