Design and Characterization Analysis of a Corona Virus Shaped Microstrip Multiband Patch Antenna

In this proposed paper, a Corona Virus shape of microstrip patch antenna designed without using DGS which is proposed for multiband operation for the VHF (30-300 MHz), UHF (300-1000 MHz), L-band (1000-2000 MHz), and S-band (2000-4000 MHz) applications. The antenna is 40 mm × 40 mm × 0.96 mm and Rogers R03003 is used as a substrate. Also, copper is used for both the patch and the ground plane. Initiation of a Corona Virus-shaped structure with modified upper slots develops in the patch’s center. There are 25 resonant frequencies in all for the antenna. With a maximum gain of 12.7 dBi at 36.7 GHz and an average gain of 8.1 dBi. Thus, the VSWR of this Virus-shaped patch antenna can fulfill the criteria of the multiple intended applications while taking into account all the parameters, including bandwidth, high gain, higher return loss, reflection coefficient, and impedance matching.
