Abstract
A novel compact multi-band design of planar C-shape monopole antenna with inverted L-shape parasitic strip is proposed for IEEE 802.16m WiMAX system. The obtained impedance bandwidth across the 2.6/3.5/5.5GHz operating bands can reach about 240/570/4470MHz, respectively. Only with the antenna size of 15£30£0:8mm 3 , the proposed monopole antenna has the compact operation with more than 25% antenna size reduction. The measured peak gains and radiation e-ciencies are about 1.6/1.9/2.9dBi and 91/96/94% for the 2.6/3.5/5.5GHz operating band, respectively, with nearly omni-directional pattern in the XY -plane.
