    Abstract :

    In this paper the performance of a convexo concave patch antenna is investigated and all results are systematically presented. The angle for the concave arch and convex arch is taken to be 400. In this modified antenna impedance matching is achieved by impedance matching transformer. The first bandwidth is of 0.0351GHz at center frequency 3.03 GHz and the second bandwidth is of 0.0257GHz at center frequency 5.28 GHz. The bandwidth, gain, directivity and are marginally improved than a rectangular patch antenna. The radiation patterns of proposed antenna in the entire frequency range are identical in shape and directed normal to patch geometry.
