Abstract
In this paper a compact dual band planar hexagonal patch antenna with meander transmission line fed by co-planar wave guide is proposed. The antenna resonates at 2.51-2.69 GHz and 3.52-4.10 GHz, which makes it suitable for 2.57 GHz (LTE) and 3.78 GHz worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) frequency bands, respectively. This hexagonal patch is designed on FR-4 substrate with 1.6 mm thickness. The antenna is fed by a meandered transmission line which reduces the overall size of the antenna. The planar hexagonal patch antenna is smaller in size as compared with conventional microstrip patch antenna and has a good agreement with the simulation results. Hence, the antenna is suitable for LTE and WiMAX band applications.
