Technical Comparisons Between Two Types of Antennas at A Frequency of 3 GHZ Bilbiografia
Technical Comparisons Between Two Types of Antennas at A Frequency of 3 GHZ Bilbiografia
1 Introduction
2 Methodology
The main objective of the paper is to design and model antennas to understand
and evaluate the behavior of both antennas within the 3GHz frequency range.
In this context, the antenna design aims to optimize the performance of each
type of antenna for its specific application, ensuring efficient radiation and signal
reception at the desired frequency.
For the design of the Patch Antenna with Insert Field, the dimensions and
characteristics of the main patch and supplementary patch (Insert Field) must
be determined. These patches are separated by a dielectric material that affects
their electromagnetic interaction and, consequently, their radiation behavior.
The shape, size, distance, and connectivity between both patches will be consid-
ered to achieve better focusing and control of radiation in the desired direction.
Regarding the 1x4 Linear Array, the linear alignment of the four radiating
elements must be designed. The dimensions and configurations of the elements
will be defined to achieve the appropriate phase and amplitude, producing a
directional radiation pattern with maximum gain in the desired direction. The
choice of separation between the elements of the Linear Array is also crucial for
controlling the beam width and directivity.
Once the design of both antennas is completed, the modeling process will be
conducted using Ansoft Designer software. This process involves creating three-
dimensional models that faithfully represent the physical structure of the anten-
nas. The design parameters obtained previously will be input into the software
to simulate the behavior of the antennas within the 3GHz frequency range.
2.2 Design
For the antenna with Insert Field, the following calculations have been per-
formed:

Once the calculations for the length and width dimensions of the patch have
been performed, Figure 1 shows the final design of the patch antenna with a rect-
angular geometry, created using ANSOFT DESIGNER. The designed antenna
features a rectangular copper patch with the calculated dimensions W * L. On
the backside of the antenna, there is the ground plane, on which the copper layer
covers the entire width and length of the FR4 substrate.
For the 4x1 Patch Array antenna, the same calculations as the previous one
were performed for each individual patch. The design was then coupled to a
power divider, connecting the patch antennas. The result of this arrangement is
shown in Figure 2.
Reflection Coefficient, and Gain: In Figure 3, the reflection coefficient and gain
of the patch antenna with Insert Field at the operating frequency can be ob-
served.
Reflection Coefficient and Gain: In Figure 5, the gain of the 4x1 patch array
antenna and the operating frequency can be observed.
Impedances Figure 6 shows the impedance matching of the patch antenna with
insert field.

2.5 Manufacturing
To manufacture the two types of antennas, the design was not exported to a file
in pdf format. Once the image had the desired design features, it was printed
on paper special thermal transfer for PCB manufacturing. Using the iron-on
technique, the design was not transferred to the PCB and introduced into ferric
chloride to remove excess coppermade. In this way, the antenna with insert field
was obtained shown in Figure 7 and the antenna array in Figure 8. Additionally,
an RP-SMA FEMALE connector was soldered of 50 ohms.
An exhaustive simulation of two different types of antennas was carried out: the
Patch Antenna with Insert Field and the 4x1 Antenna Array. Both antennas were
modeled and simulated using Ansoft Designer software, considering an operating
frequency of 3GHz, which is the frequency of interest for our specific application.
During the simulation, several key parameters were obtained for each an-
tenna, including gain, impedance, reflection coefficient, SWR (Standing Wave
Ratio), voltage, and current. These parameters provided detailed information
on the performance and characteristics of each antenna at the frequency of in-
terest.
To complement the results of the simulation, various papers and works related
to the subject were consulted and analyzed. These papers provided additional
information on similar antennas, their designs, features, and applications in dif-
ferent contexts. The review of these papers was essential to obtain a broader and
more informed vision of the performance of the antennas and the best practices
in their design.
The comparison of the parameters obtained from the simulations and the
information collected from the papers allowed us to determine which of the two
antennas offers better performance for our specific application. By carefully eval-
uating and analyzing all the results, it was possible to select the most suitable
antenna that meets our requirements for wireless communication on the 3GHz
frequency. These results can be seen in Table 1, where some technical param-
eters offered by the simulation in the software are compared, where one of the
factors that are most changed are gain and power, giving the antenna a greater
advantage with arrangement.
