Abstract

The wireless communication is popular for communication as our day to day need is increasing for better service. In recent, wireless systems are so advanced and for better response they need small size antennas but at the same side they have to give good performance. The PIFA is advised to use in small equipments like mobile phones. Substrate permittivity affects the matching bandwidth, polarization and gain. The paper configures the bandwidth matching and returns loss variations with different dielectric substrates. The radiating square patch of fixed dimension 26mm38mm is examined with effects of lossy and perfect dielectric substrate.
