Reporting Period: 12-Feb-2023 to 03-March-2023 (Month 6)

I was allocated to the Microwave Communication and Antenna Division

(MCAD). The following lists the activities I did during this period.
 Carried out a paper survey that is related to aperture stacked patch
antenna for designing dual polarized aperture stacked patch antennas
 Design of a dual-polarized wide-band aperture stacked antenna for a
frequency range of 1GHz to 3 GHz:
 The antenna is made up of several dielectric layers (Duroid 5880,
FR4 and air)
 Two rectangular patches are mounted on two different dielectric
layers, which are located above the two feed layers.
 Two different feed layers are used to obtain dual polarization and
also to obtain better isolation between the two polarization ports
throughout all operating frequencies
 A Cross-slot in the design radiates two different polarizations
 S-parameters, radiation pattern and gain of the antenna are
obtained
 Design of a dual-polarized wide-band aperture stacked antenna for a
frequency range of 24.25 GHz to 27.25 GHz:
 The antenna is made up of 3 layers
 Layer 1 consists of a corporate feed line below the substrate and
cross-slotted ground above the substrate; layer 2 consists of a feed
line above the substrate and cross-slotted ground below the
substrate (above layer 1); and layer 3 consists of a patch above the
substrate and an air gap below the substrate (above layer 2)
 S-parameters, radiation pattern, and gain of the antenna are
obtained
