This paper presents a new dual-band, dual-polarized 1×4 antenna array design for telecommunication base station. One of the bands covers global system for mobile communication (GSM) band, while the other covers both digital communication system (DCS) and universal mobile telecommunication system (UMTS) bands. The antenna is based upon an aperture stacked patch layout and incorporates a simple a...

A compact multiband handset antenna including MIMO antenna operation for LTE 13 band (746 ∼ 787MHz) applications is proposed. The proposed antennas are separately located on the top and bottom portions of a mobile handset in order to use the antenna area more effectively. The proposed antenna achieves isolations of higher than 14 dB, enveloped correlation coefficients (ECC) of less than 0.25, a...

The intent of this paper is to compare two designs of RFID antenna which is used for Ultra High frequency (UHF) and Ultra wideband (UWB) applications. Here the comparison of Hybrid design and XETS design is done. In hybrid design the antenna simultaneously operate on both the bands viz.UHF as well as UWB. In XETS design antenna operates only for UWB. Hybrid antenna is planar antenna. There is a...

In this paper, a new reconfigurable frequency microstrip antenna with an ability of two rejecting intruder frequency WLAN and WiMAX bands for UWB applications is presented. In this antenna, a defect ground structure (DGS) and a U-shaped slot which is located on the ground plane have been used to improve bandwidth. Antenna impedance matching has been achieved through creating two symmetric incis...

The popularity of mobile communication systems has increased remarkably during the last decade and the market demand still continues to increase. As a fundamental part of these systems, antenna is one of the most important design issues in modern mobile communication units. Although there are several similar definitions, an antenna can be mainly described as a device, which transforms the elect...

With the rapid development of wireless communication systems, the multiple separated frequency bands antenna has become one of the most important circuit elements and attracted much interest. In order to satisfy the IEEE 802.11 WLAN standards in the 2.4 GHz (2400–2484 MHz)/5.2 GHz (5150–5350 MHz)/5.8 GHz (5725–5825 MHz) operating bands and the worldwide interoperability for microwave access (Wi...

A miniature single-layer CPW-fed monopole antenna with triple-band operation for wireless local area network (WLAN) and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) applications is presented. The proposed antenna, comprising a planar rectangular patch element embedded with dual U-shaped slot, is capable of generating three distinct operating bands, 2.37–2.53, 3.34– 3.82, and 4.23–6.8...

A novel compact coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed printed antenna with triple bands for WLAN and WiMAX applications is presented. By using a parasitic circular patch, a pair of symmetrical inverted-L strips and a 50-Ω transformer, the antenna can effectively provide a good input impedance matching. The tuning effects of the ground size, the parasitic circular patch and the symmetrical invertedL stri...

In this paper, a tri-band E-shaped microstrip patch antenna is presented for SHF and microwave data links. The proposed antenna has symmetrical properties and has been designed by forming E-shape structure on substrate with Wave guide feed. It radiates for three bands having two bands in SHF and one in lower EHF frequency bands. It is demonstrated that the fabricated antenna offers improved val...
