Abstract

Objective: To enhance the design and implementation of microstrip antenna for wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) in real-time applications Methods: This study uses radio communication to connect end nodes and forms a multihop self-organizing network with a dynamic topology. Also, the antenna is fabricated from low-cost FR-4 printed circuit board (PCB) material. The designed rectangular patch antenna operates in the industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) frequency band of 2.45 GHz, and HFSS software analyzer is used to authenticate the proposed work. Findings: The designed antenna finds an extensive use in short-range wireless sensor networks, the proposed antenna reduces the return loss from 10% - 13 % and almost 15% improvement in radiation compared with K. D. Xu (2018) and E. Zhang (2020). Novelty: A novel short range, low power, and well directional microstrip patch antenna are designed to improve the wireless Sensor communication applications operating at 2.4 GHz and 5.3 GHz frequencies. The presented approach is simple to operate, cost-effective, energy-efficient, and has optimum return loss performance (please refer Table 2) when compared to the existing approaches.
