Abstract
In this study, helical antenna with microwave ZST ceramics was designed using finite element method and developed. Studied parameters are relative dielectric constant of the dielectric core and the width of the conduction metal band of the antenna. As shown in the results, the center frequency of the antenna was decreased as the dielectric constant increased. Also beam width of the antenna increased as both the dielectric constant and the conduction band width increased. Based on the designed optimal shape, the manufactured antenna has the good beam width at center frequency 1.58 GHz.
