A Novel Design of Parasitically Gap Coupled Patches Forming an Elliptical Patch Antenna for Broadband Performance

Table 1

Design parameters for the proposed gap coupled elliptical microstrip patch antenna.

Serial number	Design parameter	Values
1	Dimensions of elliptical patch:
	(i) semimajor axis	“𝑎” = 1.5 cm
	(ii) semiminor axis	“𝑏” = 1.0 cm
2	Central edge truncated ellipse (1)
	(i) length of semimajor axis	“𝑎 = 𝑎1” = 1.5 cm
	(ii) length of semiminor axis after truncation	“𝑏1” = 0.57 cm
3	Dimensions of patches (2) and (4)	“𝐿1” = 1.33 cm, “𝑊1” = 0.35 cm
4	Dimensions of patches (3) and (5)	“𝐿2” = 0.94 cm, “𝑊2” = 0.35 cm
5	Width of gaps	“𝑔1” = 0.7 mm, “𝑔2” = 0.5 mm
