摘要: In this paper, the design, simulation and optimization study of a rectangular microstrip patch antenna (MPA) for ultra wideband (UWB) wireless body area network is presented. The UWB technology provides communication using very narrow pulses at low spectral densities. Federal Commission Communication allocates bandwidth from 3.1GHz to 10.6GHz unlicensed radio applications. proposed designed simulated in Agilent advance design system - momentum, an electromagnetic simulator that works on method moment technique. RT/duroid 5880 (er = 2.2 h 0.381mm), thin flexible substrate suitable wearable antennas networks FR4 4.6 1.6mm). dimensions both substrates calculated well known transmission-line model. An offset feeding technique used feed antenna. maximum achieved gain 2.96dBi 8.3GHz, whereas 2.52dBi 7.7GHz, respectively. uses reduced ground plane achieve wide characteristic.
