abstract: In today's modern communication industry, antennas are the
most important components required to create a communication link.
Microstrip antennas are the most suited for aerospace and mobile
applications because of their low profile, light weight and low power
handling capacity. These antennas can be designed in a variety of shapes
in order to obtain enhanced gain and bandwidth for dual band and
tri-band operation. This book focus on a detailed study of how to design
and simulate a microstrip fed rectangular patch antenna using IE3D
software with effect of antenna dimensions length ( L ), width ( W ),
relative dielectric constant, substrate thickness (t ) on the radiation
parameters of bandwidth and gain. The design parameters of the antenna
calculated using the transmission line model. Here antenna operates for
tri- band operation, the operating bands are GSM, PCA and UTMS for
antenna geometry -I and WLAN and WiMAX for antenna geometry -II. The
fractional bandwidths (FB) after simulation obtain under criterion (
