Radiation Characteristics of a Wideband Triangular Antenna for Wireless Communications

A new design of a wideband printed triangular antenna with a slot and steps is fed by a microstrip transmission line is presented which is suitable for ultra-wide band application. Antenna impedance and bandwidth are optimized by testing the suitable slot dimension and position and using the suitable dimension of the ground plane. A prototype antenna was fabricated on a dielectric FR4 (substrate thickness=1.5 mm, εr=4.65) and measured for VSWR characteristics. The antenna operates in the (1.88109-3.01712) GHz frequency range and has a bandwidth of 46% within 2:1 VSWR. Range of antenna gain is between 2.2 dBi to 3.08 dBi which indicate that the proposed antenna can be used for various applications. Details of the antenna design and a comparison of the simulated and measured results are presented and discussed.
