This research letter describes the optimization of omnidirectional corrugated miniaturized planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) operating at 401.95 MHz for Microsat. To examine the impacts on the resonant frequency and miniaturization, certain antenna parameters are examined by comparing the reference antenna and the proposed antenna. The PIFA has a very tiny volume of 68 × 68 × 31 mm3 or 0.009λ × 0.009λ × 0.004λ mm3. The antenna layout shows significant miniaturization, i.e., 20% of the reference antenna. The proposed PIFA antenna generates an omnidirectional radiation pattern for Microsat applications.

摘要

This research letter describes the optimization of omnidirectional corrugated miniaturized planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) operating at 401.95 MHz for Microsat. To examine the impacts on the resonant frequency and miniaturization, certain antenna parameters are examined by comparing the reference antenna and the proposed antenna. The PIFA has a very tiny volume of 68 × 68 × 31 mm3 or 0.009λ × 0.009λ × 0.004λ mm3. The antenna layout shows significant miniaturization, i.e., 20% of the reference antenna. The proposed PIFA antenna generates an omnidirectional radiation pattern for Microsat applications.
