INTRODUCTION
Nowadays, the electromagnetic spectrum, outside the visible region, has been employed for
communication, through the use of radio in human history. Antenna is one of the best suitable elements
for wireless transmission. In wireless communication area un attachable element is antenna which is a
continuous partner from the beginning in this area. In high-performance applications, where to achieve
larger bandwidth, high gain and high directivity, multiband operation in compact size are the major
constraints for microstrip patch antennas. Antenna researchers are striving to design substantially
diminutive antennas according to the progressively reducing size of the communication devices and
handheld equipment with efficient, high gain and large bandwidth, multi band antennas. This paper has
been organized into five sections. In section II consider theory of slotting technique has been presented.
The brief review of microstrip patch antennas using slotting has been presented in section III.
Comparison of various configurations of microstrip patch antennas using slotting has been presented in
section IV. Finally the paper is concluded in section V.
II. BRIEF THEORY OF SLOTTING TECHNIQUE:
Slotting is most commonly used for bandwidth, gain improvement, broadband operation, and size
reduction. In this slotting method a slot of specific shape is introduced on the patch. The slot may be
rectangular, square, circular, triangular, U shaped, H shaped, E shaped, diamond shaped. The length
and position of a particular slot may affect the impedance bandwidth of microstrip patch antenna. By
loading suitable slots along the radiating edges of a patch improve the bandwidth of patch antenna.
Also by embedding suitable slots in the radiating patch, microstrip patch antenna with compact and
multi band can be obtained. Along with single slot multiple slots are also used to control the
impedance of the patch antenna. The analysis of slot on the patch has been done by using duality
relationship between the dipole and slot.
