Compact Broadband Monopole Antenna for C Band Applications

Compact triple-band monopole antenna for WLAN/WiMAX applications

A planar triple-band monopole antenna with a U-shaped stripline and a L slot is presented. The antenna is very compact with a size of 20 × 30 × 1.5mm3 and fed by a 50 Ω microstrip line with a defected ground. The measured −10 dB impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna covers 2.33 GHz–2.51GHz, 3.25 GHz–3.82 GHz, and 4.83 GHz–8.4GHz, respectively, which meets the specifications of WLAN 2.4/5....

A Compact Printed Antenna For Wimax, Wlan & C Band Applications

Abstract: A single feed compact microstrip antenna is proposed in this paper. One L slit & one H slit are introduced on the right edge of the patch to study the effect of the slit on radiation behaviour with respect to a conventional microstrip patch. An extensive analysis of the return loss, radiation pattern and efficiency of the proposed antenna is shown in this paper. For the optimize value...

Compact Slotted Broadband Antenna for Wireless Applications

This paper presents the theoretical investigation of a slotted patch antenna. The main objective of proposed work is to obtain a large bandwidth antenna with reduced size. The antenna has a compact size of 21.1mm x 20.25mm x 8.5mm. Two designs with minor variation are studied which provide wide impedance bandwidths of 24.056% and 25.63% respectively with the use of parasitic elements when excit...

Active Compact Antenna for Broadband Applications

A New Compact Microstrip-Fed Monopole Antenna for Triple Band WLAN/WiMAX Applications

A new compact printed tri-band antenna for WLAN/WiMAX applications is presented. The proposed antenna consists of three inverted L-shaped strips whose geometry looks like a “bent fork”. These strips are attached to the feed line through a horizontal strip. By optimizing the geometries of the inverted L-shaped strips, distinct resonant points can be effectively created for different frequency ba...
