This example shows how to create an AI model based microstrip patch antenna operating at 1.67GHz, and calculate its bandwidth and resonant frequency.

Create AI Model based Microstrip Patch Antenna

Use the design function with ForAI flag set to true to create an AI model based microstrip patch antenna operating at 1.67 GHz.

pAI = design(patchMicrostrip,1.67e9,ForAI=true)
pAI = 
  AIAntenna with properties:

   Antenna Info
               AntennaType: 'patchMicrostrip'
    InitialDesignFrequency: 1.6700e+09

   Tunable Parameters
                    Length: 0.0862
                     Width: 0.1122
                    Height: 0.0018

Show read-only properties

Vary its length and width.

pAI.Length = 0.0855;
pAI.Width = 0.113;

Analyze Microstrip Patch Antenna

Calculate its bandwidth and its lower and upper bounds.

[absBW,fL,fU,matchingStatus] = bandwidth(pAI)
absBW = 2.3422e+07
fL = 1.6679e+09
fU = 1.6913e+09
matchingStatus = categorical
     Matched 

Calculate its resonant frequency.

fR = resonantFrequency(pAI)
fR = 1.7016e+09

Convert the AIAntenna to a regular microstrip patch antenna.

pm = exportAntenna(pAI)
pm = 
  patchMicrostrip with properties:

               Length: 0.0855
                Width: 0.1130
               Height: 0.0018
            Substrate: [1×1 dielectric]
    GroundPlaneLength: 0.1795
     GroundPlaneWidth: 0.1795
    PatchCenterOffset: [0 0]
           FeedOffset: [0.0181 0]
            Conductor: [1×1 metal]
                 Tilt: 0
             TiltAxis: [1 0 0]
                 Load: [1×1 lumpedElement]
