Design and Development of Dipole Array Antenna for Wi-Fi Applications

This paper illustrates the design and development of series-fed two-dipole-array antenna (STDA) for Wi-Fi applications. The proposed consists two dipole elements different lengths, which are serially joined by coplanar strip line. incorporates a coaxial/probe feeding technique with balun as an alternative mechanism. main goal this was to create high-gain array configuration For STDA configurations, performance parameters such return loss, radiation pattern, gain, directivity investigated. It operates at 2.4 GHz has high gain 21.6 dBi when used reflector. In order improve overall analyzed configurations in formation 1 × 4, 8, 2 8 arrays. is made FR-4 substrate dielectric constant 4.4 loss tangent (tan) 0.007 thickness 1.6 mm. An measures approximately 105 mm 80 size. meets requirements 2.4-GHz bandwidth 200 MHz, thus, it found be suitable
