Abstract EN
This research presents a rectangular ring antenna excited by a circular disc monopole (CDM) mounted in front of a square reflector.
The proposed antenna is designed to cover a frequency range of 2.300–5.825 GHz and thereby is suitable for WiMAX applications.
Multiple parametric studies were carried out using the CST Microwave Studio simulation program.
A prototype antenna was fabricated and experimented.
The measurements were taken and compared with the simulation results, which indicates good agreement between both results.
The prototype antenna produces an impedance bandwidth (|S11| < −10 dB) that covers the WiMAX frequency range and a constant unidirectional radiation pattern (θ=0° and ∅=90°).
The minimum and maximum gains are 3.7 and 8.7 dBi, respectively.
The proposed antenna is of compact size and has good unidirectional radiation performance.
Thus, it is very suitable for a multitude of WiMAX applications.
