Abstract

A microstrip-fed patch antenna utilizing a graphene-based patch and ground plane on an FR4 substrate is presented. Replacing copper with graphene as the conductive material is investigated as a method of reducing the overall patch antenna size when compared to a similar copper-based antenna. Using graphene also results in an increase in the normally narrow bandwidth presented by copper-based patch antennas. The proposed antenna is simulated through CST Microwave Studio and the simulation results compared. The simulated antenna is intended for 2.45 GHz wireless applications.
