Abstract
A novel wideband sleeve antenna with capacitive annulus for wireless communication applications is presented in this paper. A sleeve structure is introduced to improve the impedance bandwidth through exciting a new resonate point. By loading capacitive annulus at the center of the sleeve, an impedance bandwidth enhancement is achieved at the upper frequency band. The measured impedance bandwidth for VSWR • 2 about 142.8% ranging from 1.01 to 6.06GHz is achieved, and monopole-like radiation patterns are presented. A prototype has been fabricated and tested, and the experimental results validate the design procedure. It is su-cient for accommodating recent wireless communication services such as DCS1800, PCS1900, IMT2000, WLAN, WiMAX2350/3500, etc.
