HFSS Tutorial 2: Recess-fed Patch Antenna

Goal: design a microstripline edge-fed patch antenna operating at 2.425 GHz using a FR-4 substrate with thickness 1.6 mm, and

. The return loss must be less than 20 dB at 2.42 GHz. Lessons learned:

  • Boolean geometry operation.
  • Field plot.
  • Radiation Pattern.
  • Optimization.
  1. Insert a New Design Project->Insert HFSS Design
  2. Save it as tutorial File->Save as
  3. Determine the approximate size of the patch. . Set initially.
  4. Determine the line width of a 50 microstrip line. The width is about 3.1 mm ( ). Let the length be near quarter

wavelength ( )

  1. Let the size of the two recess slots be and.
  2. Determine the substrate size as where and . is the thickness.
  3. Determine the air box size where
  4. Enter the above variables. Project->Project Variables
  5. Enter the substrate Draw->Box Enter position as ( ). Give it a name “substrate”.
  6. Assign FR-4 material property to the substrate.
  7. Create the patch surface and name it “Patch”. Draw->Rectangle Enter the position and size as in 8.
  8. Enter the feed line. Give it a name “feedline”. Draw->Rectangle The position is ( ), size is ( ).
  9. Create the two recess slots. Name them “slot1” and “slot2”. Draw->Rectangle The position is ( ) and.
  10. Use boolean operation to remove the two slots by select the patch first and then the two slots. Modeler->Bollean->Subtract
  11. Define the ground plane. The position is ( ), size is ( ). Draw->Rectangle
  12. Define a surface for the lumped port at the end of the microstrip line. The position is ( ), size is ( ).

single point analysis).

  1. The result is. Perform a fast sweep to verify.
  2. Perform a single point analysis at 2.42 GHz.
  3. Select the patch and feeline surface. Right click and select “Plot Fields->J->ComplexMag_Jsuf”.
  4. Setup radiation. Radiation->Insert Far Field Setup Set “Step Size” to 1 degree. Set “Theta Stop” to 360.
  5. Plot the E-plane and H-plane gain pattern. Results->Create Far Fields Report->Radiation Pattern Choose and.
