Shaping the ground plane for bandwidth enhancement embedding antenna boosters

Research output: Book chapterConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The ground plane of the printed circuit board of a wireless device typically features a rectangular shape. The electrical size of such ground plane is the main contributor to determining bandwidth, efficiency, and radiation patterns when embedding small antennas such as those in IoT devices. When the ground plane lengths (length>width) are around 0.4λ, the fundamental mode can be excited, and as a result, bandwidth is maximised. Decreasing the length reduces the bandwidth; this is the same situation for antennas, where bandwidth depends on the electrical size of the radiating structure.
