Abstract:

This paper proposes a rectangular shaped microstrip patch antenna with enhanced gain which is focused to be used for wimax applications.As today there is a growing demand of wimax technology,the objective of this project is to optimize the gain of antenna and thereby study the effects of antenna dimensions Length(L),Width(W) and substrate parmeters ,relative dielectric constant, substrate thickness on its performance.This project introduces a method using double layer with airgap to design antenna operating at 3.6GHz giving high performance in terms of gain and return loss.A microstrp probe feeding technique and moments based IE3D software will be used to design a microstrip patch antenna with enhanced gain.
