Dual Y-Shaped Monopole Antenna for Dual-Band WLANWiMAX Operations

الملخص EN

A dual-band design of monopole antenna with two coupled Y-shaped strips for WLAN/WiMAX applications is presented.

By the introduction of dual Y-shaped strips, two separated impedance bandwidths of 22.4% (3.28~4.10 GHz) and 19.2% (4.90~5.94 GHz) can be obtained to meet the specifications of the WLAN/WiMAX communication band applications.

The proposed antenna is successfully simulated, designed, and measured, demonstrating the matched impedance and good radiation characteristics with an overall dimension of 17.7 × 26 × 1 mm3.
