I. INTRODUCTION
Microstrip antenna inherently has a
low bandwidth that limits its application in
practice. Several approaches have been
made to improve the bandwidth of the single
layer patch antenna, such as use of a thick or
foam substrate [1-2]. Further a dual band
antenna is a better option to accomplish the
requirement of broadband microstrip
antenna (MSA).
Various kind of microstrip antennas were
proposed to provide dual band operation
such as radial slot antenna [3], rectangular
microstrip slot antenna with a -shaped slot
[4], and hybrid dielectric resonator antenna
[5]. The reactively loaded antenna is one of
the popular techniques to obtain the dual
band operation. Dual resonance is obtained
by introducing the slots parallel to the
radiating edge of the patch [6], co-axial or
microstrip stubs at the radiating edges [7-8],
cutting the square slot in the patch [9-10].

where c is the velocity of light, f is the
design frequency, r is the relative
permittivity of the substrate material.
U-slot loaded patch is analyzed by
considering two sections in the patch. First
section is an E-shaped patch [12] and second
(lower one) as microstrip bend line. The
dimension of both sections is shown in Fig1. Section 1 is analyzed as a patch in which
two parallel notches are incorporated. This
perturbation in the patch changes the current
length which is accounted for by an
additional series inductance L and a series

V. CONCLUSIONS
From the analysis it is found that a dual
band antenna with specific frequency ratio
can be designed by cutting an U-slot with
suitable dimensions. Both upper and lower
resonance frequencies are controllable by
the U-slot parameters.
