Selection of
suitable material is a critical step in design of microstrip antenna.
Dielectric constant, thermal expansion coefficient, conductivity, mechanical
properties, weight are leading material properties to select the proper
material. Besides these factors, environmental factors, cost and size are among
prominent design criteria. In this study to analyze material selection
situation for microstrip antenna manufacturing a multi criteria decision making
(MCDM) structure is proposed. In this context, CRITIC-MAIRCA integration which
are the one of the MCDM approaches are performed to determine the best material
for microstrip antenna. Dielectric constant, loss tangent and thermal expansion
coefficient criteria are considered to select the best among eighteen different
materials. The impact of each criterion on selection process is computed via
using CRITIC. To rank alternative considering the weights of criteria, MAIRCA
was utilized. As a result, BaSrTi₂O₆ (bulk form) is
determined as the best material for microstrip antenna manufacturing. This
study provides an initial insight related to the suitable material in a
practical manner.
