This paper presents air gap aperture coupled microstrip antenna for dual-band operation over the frequency range of (2.9 to 6.0 GHz). This antenna differs from any other microstrip antenna with their feeding structure of the radiating patch element. Input signal couples to the radiating patch trough the aperture that exists on the ground plane of microstrip feed line. The dual-band achieved by ...

In this paper, the authors propose a circularly polarized printed antenna combining a slot array antenna and a patch antenna, with dual-band operation. The proposed antenna has good isolation performance, is compact, and has simple configuration. This antenna is composed of two parts, a patch antenna (for Rx) on the top, and a slot array antenna (for Tx) on the bottom, respectively. The element...

A compact ultra wideband (UWB) monopole antenna with dual band-notched characteristics is presented. The antenna consists a square radiating patch with L shaped slots on the radiation patchand a U shaped slot as the feedline. By cutting two C-shaped slots in the ground plane, additional resonance is excited and hence much wider impedance bandwidth can produced, especially at the higher band, wh...

A new planar monopole antenna which covers 3G, Bluetooth, WiMAX, and the UWB bands and also exhibits dual band-notched characteristic is presented. Presented antenna consist a square radiating patch with a pair of L-shaped slits, and two U-shaped slot and a ground pale with a V-shaped strip. The proposed antenna has been successfully simulated and measured. Experimental results shows that the p...

A compact single-feed dual-band circularly polarized (CP) microstrip antenna is evaluated numerically and experimentally. The dual-band performances with small frequency ratio (about 1 : 1.1) are achieved by a circular patch and a narrow annular-ring, which have small difference in radius. The CP characteristics are achieved by an unequal cross-slot embedded in the circular patch and two orthog...

A Dual band reconfigurable microstrip antenna with frequency diversity for satellite communication is proposed. In this paper a reconfigurable antenna with stacked structure is used. The two patches are arranged by two substrates i.e.. one R04003 dielectric substrate and another Rohacell Foam substrate with the dielectric constant 1.04 and loss tangent 0.0027. By varying the height of foam subs...

Abstract—In this paper, we use the concept of stub loadings of planar microstrip antennas to convert a single band antenna into a dual-band antenna used for WLAN. We load a planar triangular monopole (PTM) antenna by combline stubs attached to the edges of patch in order to obtain a second resonance frequency. The simple PTM antenna is first designed to produce the lower resonance frequency and...

Office of Naval Research (ONR) of U.S.A navy has been carrying out research about advanced multifunction radio frequency concept (AMRFC) to apply the Multifunction Electronic Warfare & Electronic Support (MFEW ES) system to the future navy battleship [1]. In order to that conventional radar and communication antennas need to be active phased array antennas that can provide multi-functions such ...

A compact dual-band dual-polarized antenna is proposed in this paper. The two pair dipoles with strong end coupling are used for the lower frequency band, and cross-placed patch dipoles are used for the upper frequency band. The ends of the dipoles for lower frequency band are bent to increase the coupling between adjacent dipoles, which can benefit the compactness and bandwidth of the antenna....

a new multiple c- slotted microstrip patch antenna is proposed.  a patch antenna is a wide-beam narrowband antenna. microstrip patch antenna consist of a very thin metallic strip (patch) placed a small fraction of a wavelength above a ground plane. the patch can be designed in any possible shape and normally made by conducting material copper or gold. this paper presents design of a c- slotted ...
