Description
Summary:This paper presents the performance of the antenna on a paper substrate material. The antenna consists of star patch and two L-stub added on the star patch to achieve lower band frequency. It has been shown that the sustainable paper substrate has a widest impedance bandwidth of 84% from 2.45 GHz to 6 GHz. Moreover, the antenna performance comparison in terms of impedance bandwidth and antenna gain using different substrates has been discussed. The antenna performances characteristics are given in terms of reflection coefficient, impedance bandwidth, antenna gain, surface current distribution, Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) and radiation pattern. In addition, a parametric study is conducted to facilitate the design and optimization process.
