Technology in the field of telecommunications has developed very rapidly using wireless communication, <em>which </em>is easily accessible by various <em>devices, </em>for example, Wi-Fi or <em>Wireless Fidelity.</em> Microstrip antenna is one type of antenna that has a narrow bandwidth, small gain. This research aims to widen <em>the bandwidth </em>by designing and manufacturing <em>a truncated corner </em>microstrip patch antenna with a 2x4 array at a frequency of 2.4 GHz with <em>a U-slot. </em>The truncated corner method is used to obtain circular polarization. The truncated corner microstrip antenna is designed by cutting corners. The <em>array </em>method is used to obtain the maximum <em>gain value, while the addition of U-slot </em>aims to reduce the <em>return loss </em>and <em>Voltage Standing Wave Ratio </em>(VSWR) values.</p> ER -
