Each array contains two element units of rectangular patches, which is very accurately modeled. The array, which is a combination of several unit of this basic structure, is designed to resonate at 3G/UMTS frequency of 2 GHz. Both feed networks are simulated using Microwave Office™ software. Each technique will be evaluated and predicted using two sets of simulations (using CM/TLM and MoM). Both are then compared, and their level of variations in terms of bandwidth, resonant frequency (fres) and S11 are determined. MoM-simulated structure is then fabricated and measured to determine the degree of distinction between hardware and the two simulation sets. Fabrication is done on an FR-4 board with a relative permittivity (εr) of 4.7. Antennas designed and simulated for each feeding technique achieved the best return losses at the desired frequency, which is 2 GHz, with S11 values lower than -10 dB. At the same time, both arrays produced relatively sufficient bandwidth for its kind which is about 2 %. CM presented in this work is observed to have less than 9% difference compared to its MoM counterpart in terms of S11 and resonant frequency (f res), but very poor when used in predicting bandwidth's performance. 2009-08-12T07:16:38Z 2009-08-12T07:16:38Z 2007 Article p.154-159 978-1-4244-1094-1 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?=&arnumber=4448622 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/6852 en Proceeding of the IEEE International Conference on Telecommunications and Malaysia International Conference on Communications (ICT-MICC 2007) Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE)
