Abstract: Design of a handy triple band micro-strip patch antenna for satellite based IoT applications is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna operates at three distinct frequencies, 3.05 GHz, 7.275 GHz and 8.55 GHz respectively in the ultra wide band region. This antenna has been designed using high dielectric material Rogers RT/duroid 6010/6010LM (εr = 10.2 of height 0.8mm) in the HFSS electromagnetic simulation tool and compared its performance with the same design on FR4 substrate and recorded the results. The proposed model with RT/duroid has exhibited better performance in terms of radiation efficiency, peak gain as well as the number of operating frequencies, when compared to antenna model with FR4 substrate. It is an application specific design meant for satellite based IoT applications (Miracast, X band uplink and X band downlink respectively). The proposed antenna provides a peak gain of 5.45 dB with an average efficiency of 78% in the operating band. The combination of Miracast (Screen Sharing), satellite uplink and downlink applications made this particular antenna very handy as well as application specific with lesser cost and complexity.
