Abstract
A technique to expand the operating impedance bandwidth of a microstrip patch antenna is presented. The antenna is fed by a truncated T-shaped microstrip line on the ground plane with the rectangular slot. The proposed microstrip patch antenna offers wide bandwidth characteristics with the rectangular slot which has optimized size and position on the ground plane. The simulation result shows a fractional bandwidth of 127.8 %(0.65 to 2.95 GHz) at VSWR 2:1.
