Abstract
In this paper, a dual-band miniature uniplanar antenna is presented. The antenna size is 24.5 mm × 20 mm × 1.6 mm which consists of a modified bow-tie-shaped radiator, an inverted L-shaped ground plane, and an extended inverted U-shaped ground plane, and designed on the single side of a low-cost epoxy matrix reinforced woven glass material with permittivity 4.6. The numerical results confirm that the radiator is effectively coupled with the coplanar ground planes and the investigated antenna can cover dual frequency bands ranging from 3.32 to 10.9 GHz, and 11.88 to 17.77 GHz. The measured results of the prototype in frequency-domain and time-domain are obtained and compared with the simulated results. The results indicate that the proposed antenna demonstrates good performance over the dual impedance bands, which makes it a very potential candidate for WiMAX, WLAN, UWB, X-band, and Ku-band wireless communication applications.
