Abstract : This study presents the design and analysis of a microstrip patch antenna optimized for radar applications operating at a frequency of 3 GHz. The antenna is designed to meet the requirements of radar systems, offering characteristics such as high gain, low profile, and broad bandwidth. The design process involves simulation using electromagnetic simulation software to achieve the desired antenna performance parameters. Various antenna parameters, including substrate material selection, patch dimensions, feeding techniques, and impedance matching networks, are carefully optimized to enhance antenna performance. The proposed antenna design is expected to exhibit excellent radiation characteristics, making it suitable for radar applications requiring reliable and efficient communication at 3 GHz frequency. This antenna designed for operating at 3 GHz, type Rogers Ultralam1217 (tm) with dielectric constant, ∈r= 2.2 tanδ (0.0009) and thickness of h = 1.6mm. The antennas are simulated using Ansys HFSS software. The performance is evaluated in terms of return loss, gain, and directivity and is deemed to be compatible with simulations.

Keywords : High Gain, 3D Radiation Pattern, E-plane, H- Plane, VSWR, Rectangular Microstrip Antenna.
