Abstract

The rapid development of modern wireless communication technologies prompts the need for compact and reliable antennas capable of supporting stable and efficient signal transmission in different types of systems. In this work, a hexagon-shaped microstrip patch antenna is designed for microwave wireless communication applications. The presented antenna is reveals resonance at 4.53 GHz which can be used in wireless communication and sensing applications. By introducing hexagonal geometry, the surface current distribution is enhanced and a good amount of impedance matching with superior radiation characteristics than conventional microstrip patch antennas was achieved. The antenna is designed on FR-4 substrate with a dielectric constant of 4.3 and a thickness of 1.6 mm in order to create a small and inexpensive structure. The provided antenna has good return loss, VSWR, and stable radiation for the newest wireless communication applications, according to the findings of the design performance simulation using the CST studio suite.
