ABSTRACT
The multidielectric layer microstrip antenna structure involves addition of a superstrate layer over the
substrate. It is important that the superstrate layer must act as a part of the antenna. Design of the
multidielectric layer microstrip patch antenna based on different thickness and permittivity of the superstrate
layer has significant effect in gain and antenna efficiency. The designer must however ensure that the
superstrate layer does not adversely affect the performance of the antenna. With proper choice of the thickness
of substrate and superstrate layer, significant increase in gain can be achieved for practical applications. Thispaper discusses a set of closed form expressions for the resonant frequency for the general case of
multidielectric layers. Multidielectric layer microstrip antenna designed for applications where various physical
properties of antenna viz. permittivity, patch dimensions, height of the substrate and superstrate layer
parameters which significantly affect accuracy of the resonant frequency is analyzed.Considering the effect of
superstrate layer, a method for accurately determining the resonant frequency of such structures have been
obtained using variation of the patch dimension.The antenna performances have been evaluated for variety of
cases of permittivity and thickness of the superstrate layer.

I. INTRODUCTIONMicrostrip antennas have inherent limitation of narrow bandwidth. When a microstrip antenna is
covered with a superstrate (cover) dielectric layer, its properties like resonance frequency, gain and
bandwidth are changed which may seriously degrade the system performance [1- 4]. By choosing the
thicknesses of substrate layers and the superstrate layer, a very large gain can be realized [5-9]. Shun-
Shi Zhong, Gang Liu, and Ghulam Qasim [1] have described the significance of determining accuracy
of the resonant frequency in the design of a microstrip antenna with multidielectric layers. Thereforein view of the inherent narrow bandwidth of the microstrip patch antennas, the antenna with
multidielectric layered structure must be designed to ensure that there is a minimum drift in the
resonant frequency [10]. Theoretical methods for calculating the resonant frequency of such structures
have been reported using the variation technique, the multiport network approach, the spectral domain
analysis and other full-wave analysis methods. Numerical methods are highly accurate but too
laborious and time consuming for direct use in CAD programs. Generalization of the transmission line
model treats a rectangular microstrip antenna with several dielectric layers as a multilayer microstrip
line. With quasi-TEM wave propagating in the microstrip line, a quasistatic value of the effective
permittivity eff is derived by means of the conformal mapping technique. Relatively simple
expressions based on the conformal mapping technique and the transmission line model is therefore
used even for more complicated multidielectric structures. The conformal transformation used by
Wheeler [11] and by Svacina [4] has been used. For the general case of multidielectric layers, it has
been suggested to obtain a set of closed form expressions for the resonant frequency. The frequency

dependence of eff and the open-end extension of a patch, results in determination of resonant
frequency of such antenna structures with good accuracy. Samir Dev Gupta et. al [12] have shown
that the dimension of substrate and the patch of the microstrip antenna, and the corresponding
calculated resonant frequency are such that a very small variation in the dimension of the antenna
parameters results into a very significant change in the actual resonant frequency. Since these
calculations are repetitively carried out, the errors are cumulative at every step, thereby resulting in a
notable change in the frequency. To minimize the compounding errors an algorithm has been used
[12]. The algorithm minimizes errors at each step thereby providing a result which is highly accurate.
In the following sections the discussions and analysis are devoted to
(i) The design of a multidielectric layer microstrip antenna at 10 GHz. The muldielectriclayer design considers the effect of the cover layer on antenna performance.
(ii) Studies on performance analysis of the multidielectric antenna based on parametersinvolving combination of the superstrate layer permittivity and thickness.
(iii) Finally analyzing the characteristics of the designed antenna with/without superstratelayer.
(iv) Analysis related to axial ratio on the basis of superstrate thickness. In additionimprovement in bandwidth with changes in the superstrate thickness.
II. EFFECT OF CHANGING SUPERSTRATE LAYER THICKNESS ON THEANTENNA PARAMETERS
The microstrip antenna under consideration is designed to operate at a frequency of 10 GHz. The
design is based on various selection criteria such as the thickness of the substrate and the superstrate,
width and length of the element. Effects on antenna parameters with respect to the change in thickness
of the superstrate layer have also been analyzed in the following subsections.
2.1 Substrate selection in the design of the patch antennaSuitable dielectric substrate of appropriate thickness and loss tangent is chosen. A thicker substrate is
mechanically strong with improved impedance bandwidth [13]. However it will increase weight and
surface wave losses. The substrates dielectric constant rplays an important role similar to that of the
substrate thickness. A low value ofr for the substrate will increase the fringing field of the patch and
thus the radiated power. A high loss tangent increases the dielectric loss and therefore reduces the
antenna efficiency.
The substrate parameters so chosen are as follows:
The top layer chosen is RT Duroid 5880 having a thickness of 0.787mm, permittivity r = 2.2 and the
loss tangent tan = 0.0009. The bottom layer dielectric is RT Duroid 5870 with a thickness of
0.787mm, permittivity r= 2.33 and the loss tangent tan = 0.0012.
2.2 Element width and lengthThe selection criteria for an efficient radiator with patch size which is not too large are:
(i) A low value of the patch width Wand (ii) The ratio between the width and the length of the patch
leading to antenna with a good radiation efficiency. For the antenna to be an excellent radiator, the
ratio between WandL should lie between 1< LW< 2 [14], [15]. The patch dimensions determine the
resonant frequency. Various parameters in design of microstrip antenna are critical because of the
inherent narrow bandwidth of the patch. Using the algorithm [12], we first calculate antenna design
parameters. Calculated length and width of the patch obtained is 8.69638mm and 9.6 mm
respectively. Effective permittivity obtained is 2.15644, for the net height of the substrate 1.574 mm.
So accordingly, the calculatedRin (the value of the patch resistance at the input slot) comes out to be
326. 8508ohms. The condition10

Treating element as two narrow slots, one at each end of the line resonator, the interaction between
the two slots is considered by defining a mutual conductance. Considering far fields expressions, the
directivity of a patch and the mutual conductance between patches are calculated [17].

The addition of a cover layer over the substrate can also result in structural resonance referred to as
the resonance gain method [18]. Superstrates are selected to compare the effects of its permittivity and
its thickness on various antenna parameters. The two superstrate selected are from the data sheet of
Rogers Corporation are: High Permittivity:RT/Duroid 6010LM having relative permittivity of 10.2
and loss tangent = 0.0023. Low Permittivity:RT/Duroid 5880LZ having relative permittivity of 1.96
and loss tangent = 0.0019. Low and high thickness of the substrate under consideration are 0.254mm
and 2.54mm respectively. Analysis of the antenna structure is based on method of moments utilizing
Momentum tool in Advanced Design System (ADS) of Agilent Technologies. The Momentum based
optimization process varies geometry parameters automatically to help us achieve derived antenna
structure.
3.2Analysis based on Superstrate Layer PropertiesThe effect of the superstrate layer on antenna parameters including radiation pattern involves selection
of combination of superstrate layer viz. high/low permittivity and thick/thin superstrates.

The resonance gain method for the practical application has been studied using moment
method [19]. This resonance gain method involves a limited structural geometry, resonant
frequency drift [18]. As described in section 3.1, superstrate relative permittivity chosen is either10.2 or 1.96 corresponding to high or low relative permittivity respectively. Thickness of the
superstate considered 2.54 or .254 mm corresponds to thick or thin superstrate respectively. Table 1shows the effect on antenna parameters due to change in permittivity and thickness of superstrate
layer.
3.2.1 Case 1High Permittivity Thick Superstrate has effect on antenna parameters. Poor gain accompanied by very
low antenna efficiency of the order of 37.65%. In addition for the Case 1, return loss is also very poor
and at frequency of 8.537 GHz, it is -3.754 dB as shown in Figure 4.

Figure 5. Radiation PatternE both front and back
Figure 6. Radiation PatternE both front and back
The lossy nature of the antenna combined with poor return loss is substantiated by the radiation
pattern in both and plane highlighting minor lobes and distorted pattern as can be seen in Figure 5
and Figure 6. It is therefore concluded that combination of thick superstrate of high relative
permittivity will result in antenna behavioural pattern not conforming to the design.
3.2.2 Case 2
Antenna parameters in case of Low Permittivity Thick Superstrate show improvement in antenna gain
and efficiency. Return loss at 9.392 GHz is -14.405 dB shows marginal improvement as seen in
Figure 7. Radiation patterns seen in Figure 8 and Figure 9 shows significant improvement so also
radiated power output as compared to Case 1.

3.2.2 Case 3High Permittivity Thin Superstrate when used, shows a significant improvement in antenna
parameters viz. antenna gain and efficiency. Return loss at 8.607 GHz is -21.331 dB, shows good
improvement as seen in Figure 10. Radiation pattern seen in Figure 11 and Figure 12, shows similar
radiation plots as seen in Case 2. Marginal increase in radiated power output is seen as compared to
Case 2.

3.2.4 Case 4
Low Permittivity Thin Superstrate used as shown in Table 1 shows drop in antenna gain and marginal
increase in efficiency. Return loss at 9.721 GHz, is -35.041 dB, shows significant improvement and as
seen in Figure 13. Figure 14 and Figure 15, shows radiation plots. Radiation pattern is seen to be with
perfect null in both the plane. Increase in radiated power output is 1.01mW which is the best among
all the other three cases discussed above. Hence for antenna to resonate close to the desired frequencywith return loss better than -30 dB, radiated power is around 1 mW and pattern with no sidelobes and
perfect null. Case 4 viz. Low Permittivity Thin Superstrate is the best choice for multi-dielectric
antenna design.
Figure 13. Return Loss for Low Permittivity Thin Superstrate Antenna
Figure 14. Radiation PatternE both front and back
Plots shown in Figures 4,7,10 and 13 indicate changes in resonant frequency, effect on return
loss. There are variations in antenna directivity, gain, efficiency and finally the radiated
power due to change in superstrates characteristics. To minimize losses and resonate close to
the desired designed frequency, choice of thin and low permittivity superstrate having
sufficient mechanical strength to withstand stress and weather vagaries is recommended for
aerospace applications.

Though the results are reasonably attractive for low permittivity dielectric of the superstrate layer
thickness of the order of 0.254mm, this choice may lead to fragile structure. Hence it is desirable to gofor designs with low permittivity superstrate layer thickness of 2.54mm with good gain, antenna
efficiency and radiated power output implying low losses.
IV. Effect on Axial Ratio due to Superstrate Thickness & Improvementin Bandwidth
A very important parameter is the polarization of an antenna. The axial ratio helps to quantify the
polarization. The axial ratio is the relationship between major and minor axes of an elliptically
polarized wave and it varies between one and infinity. A linearly and a circularly polarized antenna,
the axial ratio tends to infinity and 1 respectively. Aspect ratio observed in case of multidielectric
antenna without and with superstrate layer is of the order of 1. It is a linearly polarized multidielectric
antenna. Similarly with the superstrate layer incorporated in a multidielectric layer microstripantenna, it is observed that there is a bandwidth enhancement of the order of 25% to 43.8% with a

exception related to case 1 (viz. Thick superstrate with high permittivity dielectric constant). Figure
16 shows combined plot of all antenna parameters normalized. The multidielectric layer antenna with
low permittivity thin superstrate achieves best result vis--vis all other combinations of permittivity
and superstrate thickness. However a discussed in the previous sections, the combination with next
best results that suits for practical applications is the multidielectric layer microstrip antenna with low
permittivity and thick superstrate.

V. CONCLUSIONParameters of microstrip antenna which inherently limits the gain, directivity, returns loss and
radiated power is improved upon. Considering the effect of superstrate layer method for accurately
determining the resonant frequency of such structures have been reported using the variation of patch
dimension. To overcome the time consuming and laborious accurate numerical methods a direct use
in algorithm for the design of the antenna is suggested. Data obtained from simulation with variation
of the heightof the transformed antenna and its effect can be used to predict the antenna parameters
including resonant frequency, return loss, power radiated, directivity and gain for a multilayer
microstrip antenna subjected to the limits for the thickness of the superstrate layer (0.254mm-2.54mm).
Gain of a multilayered structure increases as the height of the cover layer is decreased. As regard thin
cover layer dielectric, conductor losses are dominant while for thicker cover layer surface wave losses
