  • In recent years, microstrip antennas have been more widely applied in satellite communications, mobile phones, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and weapons. A micro-electro-mechanical systems-based (MEMSbased) high-resistance silicon C-band microstrip antenna array has been designed for the intelligent ammunition. The center frequency is 4.5 GHz. A cavity has been designed in substrate to reduce the dielectric constant of silicon and high-resistance silicon has been used as the material of substrate to improve the gain of antenna. It is very easy to be manufactured by using MEMS technology because of the improved structure of the antenna. The results show that the gain of the antenna is 8 dB and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) is less than 2 by the analysis and simulation in high frequency structure simulator (HFSS).
