1.5 mm distance between sides (Feed Line)

Should I try with FR4 double sided PCB ?...(it must work but HIGHER LOSSES...maybe z would change...tho) Tomorrow i confirm it...
-
DXF , easier...TWO and a bridge in the back...+ CST (2019) Untitled.cst Untitled.dxf The one on the picture has a LOW FRECUENCY enhancement (200mhz) and a REFLECTOR PLATE some 10 cm in the back

0.1 Brass sheet (can use ANYTHING you have)
-
1.5-2mm PES dielectric...RG316 low loss cable...
-
https://www.vinoth.org/rf-calculators/circular-patch-antenna-calculator trial and error but several curves for director reflectors are well known ...NEED to run several SIMULATIONS , tho
-
put the Feed lines close to reflector (2mm or less) and patches where they are and REACTIVITY and VSWR should get BETTER ! jomi
-
Still testing , Imepdance needs some work still...But looks good so far) Copper tape under 40 cm long and wide...PES foam or PU foam dielectric
-
Think of each Patch as Resistances , since you have 4 patches for 5.8 and two patches for 2.4...(and YOU NEED to end up on 50 ohms) cutting in a half doesn't work for ALL patches...Filters add complexity (BUT adapt impedances to EACH BAND)
-
The final impedance resonance vswr s11 , have the WHOLE as target...imho

A very well KNOWN DUAL band antenna 8dbi @2.4ghz 10dbi @5ghz You tube internals (Andrew)

MikroTik QRT 5 is a dual-polarization 5 GHz microstrip panel antenna with a gain specified up to 24 dBi and integrated radio at just 31×32×5 cm size The plastic case looks quite robust and UV resistant. The microstrip antenna array inside consists of 64 elements (8×8), which result in 10.5° beamwidth (-3 dB). There is also a MikroTik RB911G-5HPnD-QRT board, which features a 2×2 MIMO 802.11an radio (AR9342 SoC) with 30 dBm tx power. The antenna is connected with two short MMCX pigtails.

maybe gets better with thick copper wire and SMOOTH rounded Bends...they look to angled ...imho jeffrika7b.dxf
-
8 AWG = 10 mm2 Copper... Tube is PVC 3/4 with CLAMPS (shorts)
-
in Meters...?
-
a Mesh wire REFLECTOR would give at least 3 dbi more...and tailor the impedance...down to 75 ohms...MAYBE...
-
Already did , didn't like the changes...tried 2 versions , 2021-2022...went BACK...

Check efficiency , usually is poor for FR4...(it hurt RX) , if you are close to 90% it's good enough...imho
-
I can't open your cst (i'm using 2020)...
-
same size or smaller and close by...TRY SLOTS on the patchs , that works too
-
S11 (Return loss) is the energy absorbed or rejected and it relates to VSWR...from -10 to -20 you have under 2 VSWR, a GOOD antenna...and it should go from the lower frequency you need to the highest (bandwidth)
-
Adding parasitic patches (close by) would make a new s11 dip (higher or lower than the original) if those TWO dips are close by you'll widen the bandwidth ...(at some s11 expense , s11 goes up , less energy absorbed ) if you stay under -10 and efficiency is good...you are good to go...PS: efficiency is ALWAYS GOOD for me , cause i use STYROFOAM as dielectric...
