摘要：A reduced ground plane diamond shaped multiband microstrip slot antenna is proposed. The antenna is designed with two symmetrical slots to form the diamond shape and the patch is fed with a microstripline. The slots make the antenna to have multiple resonances to operate in the frequency bands of 2.15 GHz to 7.8 GHz with a peak gain of 6.09 dB at 6.83 GHz and above 2 dB in all operating bands achieving a maximum impedance bandwidth of 16.38 % in the satellite operating band. The antenna has good radiation characteristics and operates in the C-Band and military X-band making it suitable for Wi-Max, WLAN and Satellite applications.
