Abstract
In this paper, rectangular monopole antenna for ADS-B application is presented. The antenna was created by first examining the conventional RTL-SDR antenna using various measurements to identify the antenna's characteristics at 1090 MHz, which is the ADS-B operating frequency. Based on the measurement results, a rectangular monopole antenna was designed with FR-4 PCB substrate with a thickness of 1.6 mm to replace the convensional antenna. Antenna consisting of rectanguar patch radiator and a defected ground structure (DGS). A slot is etched on the radiation patch, and the patch's bottom size is reduced to perform tapered side. The final antena size is 100 × 125 × 1.6 mm. The antenna can operate in the frequency range 1036 - 2204 MHz, 2313 – 7504 MHz, and 8000 – 9451 MHz which is the first range is include 1090 MHz for ADS-B application. Antenna has 3.05 dB gain at 1090 MHz and has omnidirectional radiation pattern.
