Multiport Analysis of Hexagonal Patch Antenna
Keywords:
patch antenna, multiport analysisAbstract
This paper demonstrates application of multiport analysis technique to a hexagonal patch antenna. The multiport analysis technique is applied to construct a lumped element circuit model of a hexagonal patch antenna. FEM simulation of the hexagonal patch is also performed and the effect of varying patch dimension is
observed. The results show that a basic hexagonal patch structure results in patch size reduction compared to rectangular patch for the same center frequency.
