Abstract: In this paper the proposed micro strip
patch antenna is designed to operate at range of
5.29GHz. The reflection co-efficient S11 = -28.5
dB is achieved .The feed is excited by co-axial
feeding technique to match the input impedance
Z0 = 50Ω. For the proposed method four
different slots are ceriated . This slot is used to
stop the harmonic frequency of radiating
element. The harmonics are present at the
integer multiple of patch antenna. The gain of
the is achieved. Radiation pattern of the patch
also calculated. Different slots are analyzed.
I INTRODUCTION:
In recent days modern wireless
communication plays a major role in the
applications of GPS due to its low cost and high
performance. The GPS is a satellite based
navigation system that can be used to locate the
position everywhere on the earth. This GPS
application can be implemented in the microstrip
patch antenna .The miniaturization of the normal
microstrip patch antenna has been accomplished by
various forms which may include high dielectric
constant substrates modifications in the patch
antenna design ,using short circuits and
combinations of any of the technique .The simplest
solution is by using high dielectric constant
substrate, it may exhibit narrow bandwidth , high
loss and poor efficiency due to surface wave
excitation [1]. There are different types of antennas
which may work under some basic principles of

electromagnetic. There are different types of
configurations out of which the rectangular and
circular configuration is used for the simulation
because of the ease of the analysis fabrication and
the attractive radiation characteristics. These
antennas can be mounted on the surface of the
aircraft, space craft and even in hand held mobile
devices [2].
The
rapid
growth
of
wireless
communication services caused the increase in
demand for low cost ,compact and high efficient
equipment. Most of the communication systems
may use non-linear device for the amplification.
The properties of a non-linear device causes the
power radiation at harmonic frequencies are
generated. These unwanted harmonics may degrade
the performance of the system. The antenna is not
only a radiating element but also to do certain
operations they are filtering. In order to suppress
the harmonic frequency a slot can be etched on the
patch [3]-[4]. Microstrip patch antenna have been
used in the low power systems of the radiation and
reception of the aviation due to its light weight,
easy to manufacture and easy to manufacture. A
number of antenna with band-notched properties in
order to achieve the function. There are some
widely used methods they are etching the slots on
the patch or the ground plane. The types of the slots
are triangular, square, C-shaped, H-shaped,
rectangular are used to obtain better performance

In the proposed system the radiating
element is used to operate in 5.28GHz for the GPS
application and the first harmonics of the patch is
also analysed. In order to suppress this out of band
radiation different slots are created on the radiating
element. The outer slot is used to reduce the depth
of outer band radiation of reflection co-efficient
S11= -15dB to -10dB.the second inner slot is used
to suppress all the harmonics to zero level. All the
simulation result of patch antenna is analysed and
both the slots are rectangular slots.

V CONCLUSION
The radiating element is used to operate at a frequency of 5.28 GHz for the GPS application and the
method for eliminating the harmonic frequency is analyzed and presented. It operates at frequency with a
reflection co-efficient of -28.5 dB. The second and third harmonics are not analyzed in this paper because
interference of those harmonics are less compare to first harmonics. Slots are very useful to stop harmonic
frequency and plays the important role.
