Abstract

This paper presents the novel design of a microstrip antenna loaded with ferrite films as a substrate material. The antenna is designed to operate in the frequency range of up to 2.1 GHz which is suitable for UMTS applications. The antenna is composed of a rectangular-shaped patch antenna with thin ferrite films as a substrate. Miniaturization is achieved by using ferrite films with a high dielectric constant to increase antenna gain and decrease antenna size. High-Frequency Structural Simulator (HFSS) is used to simulate the antenna design and the results are compared with the measured values.
