Hello all.

I have a question. Is there any tutorial on designing dual band rectangular antenna.
I am working on dual band antenna, using CST, rectangular patch on FR-4, to resonate at 2.4GHz and 5.2GHz. I have tried inserting slot on my single patch (2.4GHz) but the gain keep reducing (from -24dB to -16dB).
Any tips on designing?
I know some basic rules: Length of slot = lambda/2. But what about the position of slot? And width? and material on cst-is it nickel for slot?

Please help! I am at my wits end.
Thanks in advance.
 

All right, but better or worse S11 not always make the gain of the antenna higher or lower.
If your S11 is better than -10dB (VSWR 2:1) on both bands the antenna should be fine from this point of view, and you can spend time for improving the Antenna Radiation Efficiency, which actually is the real gain parameter of the antenna.
 

Yes but the problem is my 2nd resonant seen to be at 3.3 GHz. I want it to resonate at 5.2GHz and it seems far from it. Anyone have done simulation on dual band slotted patch antenna? Pls advice me on how to get the frequency resonant at 5.2GHz; what would be the best slot dimension (LxW), slot position and shape (H, U, E or any). Pls. Need help on this.
Thanks
