Elliptical Multi-Orbital Truncated Flexible Patch Antenna Using PDMS Substrate for Sub-6 GHz Applications.
Abstract
This paper presents an elliptical-shaped multi-orbital truncated patch antenna applicable forsub-6 GHz bands. The sub-6 GHz bands cover 5.8 GHz high-speed wireless communication. The antenna is designed on a Poly Dimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate. PDMS is used for designing the proposed antenna. It is a flexible substrate with a dielectric constant εr value of 2.7 and a loss tangent tan δ value of 0.022. The substrate dimension is 20x15x1.6 mm3in which a patch is created with the size of 12.5x13 mm2. The proposed antenna resonates at 6.2 GHz showing a reflection coefficient (s11) value of -37 dB. The impedance bandwidth of the antenna is 1.225 GHz in the range of 5.5-6.725 GHz frequency, and the maximum peak gain is about 3.5 dB. The proposed antenna is simulated, fabricated, and experimentally tested.
