Description
Summary:This paper presents the design of 1x4 array microstrip antenna utilizing modified backline feeding technique at 5.8 GHz frequency band. The antenna, designed on flame retardant (FR-4) substrate with a dielectric constant of 4.4, aims to achieve reduced harmonics and mutual coupling between closely spaced antenna elements. The primary scope of the paper is investigating the performance of a single band microstrip antenna employing the proposed modified backline feeding method. Moreover, developed design came out with the result and critical analysis by various parameters such as, gain, return loss, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and directivity. Therefore, the proposed design of microstrip antenna with backward linefeed (BLF) demonstrates a directivity of 10.29 dBi, return loss of -21.947 dB, and VSWR of 1.173; are significant improvement compared to recent literature shown in this paper. The adoption of proposed back line feeding technique (BLF) represents a promising alternative for addressing poor wireless connectivity issues in terms of antenna design, gain, and direction within microstrip technology.
