Microstrip Patch Antenna Simulation Analysis

This study performs detailed simulation analysis of microstrip patch antennas using MATLAB to obtain comprehensive data and graphical results. During the simulation process, we investigate and analyze key antenna characteristics including frequency response, radiation patterns, and S-parameters. The implementation typically involves MATLAB's Antenna Toolbox functions such as design(patchMicrostrip) for antenna creation and sparameters() for S-parameter extraction. Through analysis of the generated S-curve plots (particularly S11 parameters), we can effectively evaluate the antenna's impedance matching and bandwidth performance. The simulation methodology allows for parametric studies by systematically varying geometric parameters like patch length, width, and substrate properties using optimization loops. This enables antenna performance optimization through iterative simulations, ultimately yielding more accurate results and conclusions regarding antenna design improvements. The code structure generally includes antenna object initialization, frequency sweep configuration, parameter analysis, and visualization commands for generating professional-grade technical plots.
