In this paper, an experimental investigation of ADM-based microstrip square patch antenna with unique characteristic in resonant frequency lowering is presented. The ADM is implemented by configuring cylindrical-shaped copper conductors in such a way in a dielectric substrate, i.e. styrofoam, as host material which is perpendicular to the antenna patch and the groundplane. To show potentiality of the unique characteristic, a similar construction of conventional microstrip square patch antenna realized using a styrofoam is also experimentally characterized as comparison. The characterization result indicates that the use of ADM has affected the resonant frequency lowering up to 13.1% from the conventional antenna.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Antenna applications,Artificial dielectric,Competitive advantage,Copper conductors,Dielectric substrates,Experimental investigations,Host materials,Square patch antenna[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Artificial dielectric material (ADM),Copper conductor,Microstrip antenna,Resonant frequency lowering,Square patch[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/iWAT48004.2020.1570615575[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
