Summary:
A simple technique of bandwidth enhancement of E shaped patch antenna using a coplanar parasitic radiator has been presented. The E shaped patch antenna is coaxial probe fed and parasitic radiator is a rectangular strip. Adding the strip to the patch introduces additional resonance, responsible for the enhancement of bandwidth. The length and width of the strip have been optimized to achieve the aim. Both simulation and experimental study is conducted. The maximum measured impedance bandwidth is 43.47% and maximum simulated gain is 9.91 dBi. Measured and simulated results of reflection coefficient are in good agreement. The design has been simulated in HFSS.
