Length Extention of Patch

LaTeX Go Length Extension of Microstrip Patch = 0.412*Thickness of the Substrate*(((Effective Dielectric Constant of Substrate+0.3)*(Width of Microstrip Patch/Thickness of the Substrate+0.264))/((Effective Dielectric Constant of Substrate-0.264)*(Width of Microstrip Patch/Thickness of the Substrate+0.8)))

Effective Dielectric Constant of Substrate

LaTeX Go Effective Dielectric Constant of Substrate = (Dielectric Constant of Substrate+1)/2+((Dielectric Constant of Substrate-1)/2)*(1/sqrt(1+12*(Thickness of the Substrate/Width of Microstrip Patch)))

Effective Length of Patch

LaTeX Go Effective Length of Microstrip Patch = [c]/(2*Frequency*(sqrt(Effective Dielectric Constant of Substrate)))

Width of Microstrip Patch

LaTeX Go Width of Microstrip Patch = [c]/(2*Frequency*(sqrt((Dielectric Constant of Substrate+1)/2)))

Width of Ground Plate Formula

LaTeX Go

Width of Ground Plate = 6*Thickness of the Substrate+Width of Microstrip Patch
W_gnd = 6*h+W_p

What is the significance of width of ground plate ?

A microstrip antenna's overall performance is greatly influenced by its ground plane width. The ground plane is an essential component that influences radiation patterns, efficiency, and gain by reflecting radiated waves. Designers can customize the antenna's impedance matching to ensure effective power transfer by varying the ground plane width. This dimension is also crucial in establishing the antenna's overall stability and resonance frequency. Achieving the required directional properties, reducing coupling between antennas in array arrangements, and improving isolation all depend on having an optimal ground plane width. Through the use of simulation tools and iterative design procedures, precision in these dimensions is attained, enabling the fine-tuning required to fulfill specific application requirements.
