Description of problem statement

Microstrip antenna becomes very popular due to

light weight
low cost
Small size
Ease of integration

Main disadvantage of microstrip antenna

Narrow bandwidth

Objective

Conclusion and work to be done till p3

conclusion:
comparing the bandwidth of different thickness of slots and different
length of slots.

work to be done till p3

with respect to thickness and length comparison, choose
those antenna whose bandwidth should be greater than
15% and compatible to wireless LAN
