Abstract
In this paper, a Coplanar Wave Guide (CPW)-Fed microstrip octagonal patch antenna for WLAN and WIMAX Applications is proposed. The studied structure is suitable for 2.3/2.5/3.3/3.5/5/5.5GHz WiMAX and for 3.6/2.4–2.5/4.9–5.9GHz WLAN applications. The octagonal shape is obtained by making a cut in the four angles of the rectangular microstrip patch antenna; in addition the using of CPW-Fed allows obtaining UWB characteristics. The miniaturization in the antenna size for lower band is achieved by introducing an H slot in the radiating element. The proposed antenna is designed on a single and a small substrate board of dimensions 46×40×1.6 mm3. Moreover the miniaturized antenna has a good impedance matching and a reasonable gain. All the simulations were performed in CADFEKO, a Method of Moment (MoM) based solver.
