Item An Improved U-Slot Based 1 X 2 Triple Band Antenna Array for Flying Ad-hoc Networks (FANETs)(Faculty of Technology Education, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Bauchi, Nigeria, 2017-12) Sadiq, B. O; Zakariyya, O. S; Olayanju, S. A; Adedokun, A. EThe objective of this paper is to design an improved U-Slot based 1 X 2 triple band antenna array for Flying Ad-hoc Networks (FANETs). The purpose of this modification is to increase the bandwidth and gain of the existing 1 X 2 triple band antenna array. This is because high bandwidth and gain are essential requirement for UAVs in FANET. However, to achieve this, the resonating frequency needed to be selected appropriately. The proposed antenna array resonates at 3.2GHz, 5.1GHz and 6.4GHz frequency band respectively. The antenna is optimized using a U-Slot resonating at triple-bands by introducing two symmetrical slits at the non-radiating edges of the patch. Simulation results were achieved using CST Studio and showed that the antenna has a bandwidth of 313MHz, 51MHz and 167MHz for the three bands respectively. This implies that practical applications can be achieved using this antenna.
