In this paper, an asymmetric coplanar strip (ACS)-fed quad-band monopole antenna for the global positioning system (GPS), wireless local area network (WLAN), and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) applications is proposed. It is composed of an F-shaped monopole and a partial ground plane, which are both printed on one side of a low-cost FR4 substrate with a compact volume of 40 × 20 × 1.6 mm3. By cutting an open-ended Γ-shaped slot into the F-shaped monopole, four distinct resonant modes are successfully generated. The design process, especially the geometrical configuration of the critical Γ-shaped slot is studied in detail. The proposed antenna has been fabricated and experimental results show that the −10 dB impedance bandwidth can fully cover the 1.575-GHz GPS (1.57–1.59 GHz), 2.4/5.2/5.8-GHz WLAN (2.4–2.485, 5.15–5.35, and 5.725–5.825 GHz), and 2.5/3.5/5.5-GHz WiMAX (2.50–2.69, 3.30–3.70, and 5.25–5.85 GHz) applications with nearly omni-directional radiation patterns and satisfactory gains.

This paper presents the design, testing, and analysis of a clover structured monopole antenna for super wideband applications. The proposed antenna has a wide impedance bandwidth (−10 dB bandwidth) from 1.9 GHz to frequency over 30 GHz. The clover shaped antenna with a compact size of 50 mm × 45 mm is designed and fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a thickness of 1.6 mm. Parametric study has been performed by varying the parameters of the clover to obtain an optimum wide band characteristics. Furthermore, the prototype introduces a method of achieving super wide bandwidth by deploying fusion of elliptical patch geometries (clover shaped) with a semi elliptical ground plane, loaded with a V-cut at the ground. The proposed antenna has a 14 dB bandwidth from 5.9 to 13.1 GHz, which is suitable for ultra wideband (UWB) outdoor propagation. The prototype is experimentally validated for frequencies within and greater than UWB. Transfer function, impulse response, and group delay has been plotted in order to address the time domain characteristics of the proposed antenna with fidelity factor values. The possible applications cover wireless local area network, C-band, Ku-band, K-band operations, Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, and Wireless USB.

Resonant Modes

A planar circularly polarized (CP) monopole antenna (MA) with dual-band operation for the IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless local area network (WLAN) is proposed. By introducing dual strip-sleeves shorted at the ground plane, the excitation of dual-resonant modes can resemble the 2.4/5.2 GHz bands required for WLAN operations. The obtained impedance bandwidths (RL ≧10 dB) across the operating bands approach 260/988 MHz and the 3 dB axial-ratio bandwidth of about 103/710 MHz for 2.4/5.2 GHz bands, respectively. The model proposed in this study reflects more advantages in physical implementation as its overall volume is only 40 × 40 × 0.8 mm3, 22% smaller than other conventional CP MAs. The measured peak gain and radiation efficiency are about 4.1/3.3 dBic and 94/84%, respectively, and demonstrate nearly bidirectional patterns in the XZ- and YZ-planes.

This paper proposes a dual band reconfigurable microstrip slotted antenna for supporting the wireless local area network (WLAN) and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) applications, providing coverage where both directive and omni-directive radiations are needed. The design consists of a feedline, a ground plane with two slots and two gaps between them to provide the switching capability and a 1.6 mm thick flame retardant 4 (FR4) substrate (dielectric constant Ɛ=4.3, loss tangent δ=0.019), modeling an antenna size of 30x35x1.6 mm3. The EM simulation, which was carried out using the connected speech test (CST) studio suite 2017, generated dual wide bands of 40% (2-3 GHz) with -55 dB of S11 and 24% (5.2-6.6 GHz) higher than its predecessors with lower complexity and -60 dB of S11 in addition to the radiation pattern versatility while maintaining lower power consumption. Moreover, the antenna produced omnidirectional radiation patterns with over than 40% bandwith at 2.4 GHz and directional radiation patterns with 24% bandwith at the 5.8 GHz band. Furthermore, a comprehensive review of previously proposed designs has also been made and compared with current work.

We present a simple coplanar waveguide- (CPW-) fed rectangular ring monopole antenna designed for dual-band wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. The antenna is based on a simple structure composed of a CPW feed line and a rectangular ring. Dual-band WLAN operation can be achieved by controlling the distance between the rectangular ring and the ground plane of the CPW feed line, as well as the horizontal vertical lengths of the rectangular ring. Simulated and measured data show that the antenna has a compact size of21.4×59.4 mm2, an impedance bandwidths of 2.21–2.70 GHz and 5.04–6.03 GHz, and a reflection coefficient of less than −10 dB. The antenna also exhibits an almost omnidirectional radiation pattern. This simple compact antenna with favorable frequency characteristics therefore is attractive for applications in dual-band WLAN.

Circular Loop

A novel uniplanar wideband magneto-electric dipole antenna element is proposed in this paper. The proposed antenna is composed of the conventional bow-tie radiation patch as an electric dipole, a semi-circular loop, which works as a magnetic dipole, a coplanar ground plane, two directors with different lengths for enhancing gain, and a microstrip-to-coplanar stripline transition balun. The designed antenna adopts a small-size coplanar ground plane to achieve a uniplanar structure. Consequently, this method reduces the space size immensely and makes the antenna suitable for the array application. In addition, a tapered slot structure is utilized to improve impedance matching. The prototype of the proposed antenna was fabricated and measured. The measured results keep in good accordance with the simulated ones. The simulated results show that the proposed antenna obtains a broad impedance bandwidth of 60.5% from 2.25 to 4.20 GHz (voltage standing wave ratio [VSWR] ≤ 2) which can be applied for wireless local area network (WLAN) (2.4–2.484 GHz), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) (2.5–2.69/3.4–3.69 GHz), and long term evolution (LTE) (2.5–2.69 GHz). Meanwhile, the stable gain, low cross-polarization, stable unidirectional radiation patterns, and low back lobe are obtained within the operating frequency band. The array composed of the proposed antenna elements is also investigated in this paper.

A coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed I-shaped monopole antenna with independent frequency control characteristic is presented for simultaneously satisfying the global positioning system (GPS), wireless local area network (WLAN), and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) applications. It is printed on an FR4 substrate with a single-layered metallic structure and the overall dimensions are [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mm3. The proposed antenna consists of an I-shaped monopole, a pair of split-ring resonators (SRRs), and a coplanar ground plane. The unique advantage of this study is that the four frequency bands are generated individually by different radiating elements. That is, each of them can be controlled independently with little interference from others, which brings added convenience to the antenna design, optimization and debugging processes. Simulated and measured results both demonstrate that it can cover the 1.575[Formula: see text]GHz GPS (1.57–1.59[Formula: see text]GHz); 2.4/5.2/5.8[Formula: see text]GHz WLAN (2.4–2.485, 5.15–5.35 and 5.725–5.825[Formula: see text]GHz) and 3.5/5.5[Formula: see text]GHz WiMAX (3.40–3.60 and 5.25–5.85[Formula: see text]GHz) applications with satisfactory radiation patterns and acceptable gains.

In this paper a novel compact multi-band printed coplanar waveguide (CPW)-feed antenna for wireless local area network (WLAN)/WiMAX/RFID applications is proposed. The proposed antenna is composed of a multi-triangular structure as metal ground plane and the radiation element with four different branches, both of the structures are printed on the same side of a substrate and the antenna is fed by a CPW. By carefully tuning the locations and the sizes of these four branches, the antenna can yield three different resonating frequencies to cover the desired bands for WLAN/WiMAX/RFID applications. The simulated and measured results demonstrate that the proposed antenna has the impedance bandwidth (for return loss less than −10 dB) of 700 MHz (2.2−2.9 GHz), 540 MHz (3.16–3.7 GHz), and 850 MHz (5.05–5.9 GHz), respectively, which can cover the WLAN 2.4/5.8 GHz bands, the WiMAX 2.5/3.5 GHz bands, and the RFID 2.45/5.8 GHz bands.
