Abstract

AbstractA simple, one‐piece, flat‐plate dipole antenna suitable for dual‐band WLAN applications is presented. The antenna is structured to be of an L‐shape to fit in corners of possible wireless electronics devices. The two radiating arms of the dipole antenna are further short‐circuited through a narrow shorting strip at the corners, making it possible for the antenna to be manufactured by stamping a single, flat metal plate only one time. That is, the proposed antenna in the mass‐production phase can be at lower cost. In addition, by cutting an L‐shaped slit at proper location in each radiating arm, a dual‐band operation can easily be obtained. The design prototype of the antenna in the 2.4/5.2 GHz bands is discussed in detail in the article. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
