Abstract

This paper presents analysis of Multiband Corporate fed Bowtie Antenna Array having tuned in L Band. Bandwidth performance is analyzed for different substrate materials and effect of ground plane is presented. Simulation result shows that proposed antenna using Roggers RT/Duroid matarial is tuned at frequencies 1. 05 GHz, 1. 63GHz, 2. 25GHz and 2. 92GHz and provides 40. 95%, 18. 40%, 14. 66% and 17. 97% bandwidth respectively. Proposed antenna can be used for applications such as WCDMA, Mobile Satellite services, point to point, TV pickup and subscriber radio system (SRS). The antenna is simulated on HFSS virtual tool.
