title = "Meander line Antenna with Metamaterial Structure for AIS (Automatic Identification System) Micro Satellite",
abstract = "The rapid development of AIS (Automatic Identification System) data usage applications, makes AIS began to be applied in satellites to obtain a larger coverage area. Indonesia through the Indonesian National Aeronautics and Space Agency (LAPAN) has two micro satellites with the AIS mission, namely LAPAN-A2/LAPAN-ORARI and LAPANA3/LAPAN-IPB. LAPAN will also build another micro satellite that carries AIS in order to get near real-time data. AIS based satellite has problems with large VHF antenna dimensions and data collisions in high traffic areas. The final dimension of the purposed antenna is 133.00 x 88.00 x 1.52 mm3, therefore this antenna can be applied in micro satellite. The simulation results show that the antenna works at a frequency 160.93-164.04 MHz with gain 1.654 dB. Miniaturization with meander-line and metamaterial structure technique has succeeded in reducing dimensions by 42%. This antenna has an omnidirectional radiation pattern with a beamwidth of 88.26°, and when this VHF antenna is installed on a satellite, the projection of the antenna on the earth's surface is reduced by 50% from existing antenna. Hence this antenna can be used to reduce data collision of the satellite.",
