Abstract
AbstractA novel compact printed monopole antenna for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications is presented in this article.The proposed antenna consists of an L‐shaped monopole radiator and an arc‐shaped stub which can produce the required two bandwidths respectively. This antenna, fed by a 50‐Ω microstrip line, has a small size of only 20 mm × 25 mm. A prototype of the dual‐band antenna has been designed, fabricated and measured. Experimental results show that the presented antenna covers 2.2–2.6 GHz and 4.7–6.2 GHz with return loss less than −10 dB. Besides, the antenna has good radiation patterns in both E and H planes. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
