Dear,
I want to build a PATCH_ antenna for my Wire Less Phone (CDMA) 1900MHz.
I have no experience of RF/Antenna.
Did any one build by self? please help.
I have already seen some nice topics and infos on net.
thanks
Sadat
The best way to design a p@tch antenna is to use an EM simulator. If you don’t have something like this, or you don’t know how to use it, here is a link that shows how to build a 1.9GHz p@tch antenna, having dimensions and even formulas if you want to make for a different frequency. **broken link removed**
You have to find the parameters of your board material (Er, thickness, etc), because p@tch antenna design is very sensitive to these parameters.
Well I must say that in my opinion, building at patch antenne is a pretty advnaced task. What kind of patch antenna did you have in mind? A microstrip? For simulations i strongly recommed IE3D. try to aquire o trial version from: www.zeland.com
Regarding litterature i recommend followinr books:
Antenna Theory Analysis and Design by Balanis
Microstrip Antenna Design Handbook by Bhartia
Planar Antennas for Wireless Communications by Wong
The latter show several planar antennas and present the simualtions
