Design of Compact Circular Shaped Slot Antenna for Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

This study is to improve the implementation and design of microstrip patch antennae for real-time wireless Sensor Network (WSN) applications. By forming a multi-hop self-controlling network with different topologies by connecting end nodes with radio frequency communication. The designed circular-shaped slotted patch antenna operates in the ISM band of 2.4 GHz, FR-4 substrate for antenna has been designed using HFSS software. The proposed antenna is widely used in short-range wireless sensor networks. A low return loss, wideband, and compact design circular shape slot antenna enhancing the wireless Sensor communication applications at the resonant frequency. © 2023 IEEE.
