Efficiency in Bandwidth by using Meander Line
Antennas Simulation
MD. Javeed Ahammed, R. Praveena
ABSTRACT- In communication technology antennas plays a
major role and now a days it has tremendous demand we do have
different types of antennas for efficient transmissions discuss
about a monopole antenna which is printed of meander line that
is used for very low frequency operations of about 900 MHz With
partially defected ground plane is backed with E-shaped meander
line antennas of double structure is obtained by numerous slots
evaluation which is the novelty of this design. By using this
monopole antennas fabrication we can reduce the size of
antenna and can have less operating frequency which is
drastically reduced by these slots and meander lines. By this
proposed design we can achieve 70% of reduction in size of
antenna as conventional antennas compared. The size is of
42.2mm× 70 mm or 0.12λ

is obtained to antenna which is
very reduced by this model. For having simulation performance
valid we use FR4 substrate material for fabrication of antenna
and is low cost. After simulation we can observe that the
radiation pattern for this antenna is omni-directional measured
with bandwidth impedance of 40 MHz with the -1dB gain which
is maximum. We use CST Tool for simulation and fabrication
technology is as simple even with this FR4 material.

I. INTRODUCTION
As we use MIMO antennas even in near and far field
operations which occupies larger area and power
consumption even bandwidth is very less as compared to
our proposed antennas these are slotted meander line
antennas. In number of countless applications we use these
Ultra High Frequency (UHF) bands including in
LTE700/GSM850/900 band [1], wireless M-Bus [2], and
wireless body area network [3]. As we use the UHF
frequencies there is more size of antenna is required due to
its larger wavelength. So, particularly for low frequency
band signals there should be minimized because the size of
antenna for this operating band is very large. Before
meander line for low frequency bands we use to have wired
antennas for even UHF range frequency also. But there are
difficulties in integration with circuit boards of microwave
integrated and have manufacturing in complex and clumped
manner.
Nevertheless, we have a solution for this that is using planar
antennas which can overcome those issues but bulk size
does matters.

So, based on slotted meander line a monopole printed
antenna of miniaturized size patch at 900MHz is simulated
in this paper based on CST tools for Ultra High Band
frequencies. For antennas impedance matching we develop
a ground of small square defected structure. As we see the
miniaturized evolution techniques by using slotted meander
line reduce the power consumption required the size of this
meander line miniaturized antenna is 46 × 72 mm

II. MEANDER LINE ANTENNA
This antenna has lots of advantages and disadvantages
which we discuss further and as for now the antenna design
model is evaluated in this section. Figure.1 is a meander line
antenna structure which is a fabrication model on FR-4
material of substrate and ε
r
= 4.2 which is for constant
dielectric, and height of substrate is denoted by h=1.4mm
and which is tangent of loss 0.01 our antenna structure is
having microstrip line which is 50 Ω feed that is backed
partially. For improving the impedance we add the small
rectangular slot on antennas back side with parameters of
length and width of 3.5 mm is realized on the back side of
the antenna to improve the impedance matching of the
design.
