Abstract: This paper present the brief view to design of a microstrip rectangular patch antenna. Microstrip patch antennas are used because of configuration such as low profile, conformal, light weight, and easy fabrication. The linear polarization and circularly polarization of microstrip patch antennas have attracted more attention recently. These antennas are significant due to their ability to improve the benefits of microwave imaging application. The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) has approved the frequency limit for narrowband and wideband antenna. One of the advantage of the narrow band technology is the design of feasible compact conformal antennas. Therefore a compact miniaturized microstrip rectangular patch antenna has been proposed to design for microwave imaging application. The miniaturization of microstrip patch antenna has been done to obtain the better narrow bandwidth, return loss and Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR). Ultra Wide Band (UWB) is achieved by using certain techniques which is used for expansion of bandwidth. The rectangular patch antenna with a 50Ωmicrostrip feed is fabricated on the FR4 substrate.

Keywords: MSA, Return Loss, VSWR, Bandwidth, UWB.
