▎ 摘  要

A graphene microstrip patch antenna is designed to operate in the three bands of the atmospheric windows promising for the future wireless communications. The graphene has a reconfigurable surface conductivity that can be tuned to operate at the desired frequencies. This paper studies the role of chemical potential OM of the graphene to tune the resonant frequency of a microstrip antenna. The results show that the resonant frequency of a microstrip antenna increases as the chemical potential grows that can be employed to realize a reconfigurable antenna. The proposed resonances for the low-loss 300 GHz, 350 GHz and 410 GHz atmospheric windows can be achieved for mu(c) = 0.21 eV, mu(c) = 0.4 eV and mu(c) = 1.5 eV respectively. Finally, a design process for a multi-band graphene-based antenna has been presented. (C) 2017 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
