The involvement of AMC structure on the design of microstrip antenna makes the dimension of antenna to be smaller, hence it is easy to use for portable communication devices. The tunable frequency response of proposed microstrip antenna can be achieved by incorporating external elements, namely varactor diode. Here, the varactor diodes of STMD3001 type are used with the reverse DC bias voltage of 0V, 3V, and 10V. The proposed multi-band microstrip antenna is design using two layers of 1.6mm thick FR4 epoxy dielectric substrate. There is a square patch on the top side of the first layer and 4 identical square patches arranged in a 2×2 array on the top side of the second layer. The results show that the proposed AMC-based microstrip antenna could produce the tunable frequency response in the frequency range of 1.575GHz to 2.75GHz along with the variation of reverse DC bias voltage.[/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]Artificial magnetic conductors,Dc bias voltage,Dielectric substrates,Frequency ranges,Portable communication devices,Second layer,Square patches,Varactor diodes[/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 magnetic conductor (AMC),Frequency response,Multi-band microstrip antenna,Varactor diode[/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]This work is partially supported by the National Strategy Institution Research Program under contract No. 042/PNLT2/PPM/2020 and No. 25/E1/KPT/2020, and the National Innovation System Research Incentive (InSINas) Program under contract No.: 68/INS-1/PPK/E4/2020, from the Ministry of Research and Technology/National Research and Innovation Agency, the Republic of Indonesia, FY2020.[/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/TSSA51342.2020.9310840[/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]
