▎ 摘  要

Graphene conductive ink based microstrip line fed circular patch is presented in this paper. The main objective of this work is to replace copper with graphene which is an emerging promising material, in the field of patch antennas with conventional rigid substrates using a simple printing technique and to measure its performance. The prototyped screen printed graphene antenna is perfectly radiating and the return loss, VSWR and gain of the graphene antenna is found to be better than conventional copper antenna. Also, the bandwidth of the graphene antenna is 1.6 times greater than that of the conventional copper antenna on rigid substrate.
