Asymmetrical mirror imaged monopole antenna with modified ground structure for DBDP radiations

ABSTRACT

In this article, asymmetrical mirror-imaged monopole antenna comprises a rectangular patch with tuneable stub and supported with modified ground structure (MGS) is investigated. The proposed antenna is characterised for dual band dual polarised (DBDP) radiations and can operate at 2.45 GHz for Wi-Fi and WLAN systems (2.4–2.485 GHz) and 5.45 GHz for WLAN band (WLAN band: 5.2–5.8 GHz) with the corresponding polarisations. A rectangular patch integrated with tuneable stub and a pair of asymmetrical inverted L-shaped slots positioned at ground plane is responsible for circularly polarised higher band; while a parasitic patch is created due to slotting of a mirror-imaged stub from the extended ground plane which is accountable for lower frequency band. The fabricated prototype shows that the measured Impedance bandwidths (VSWR < 2) are 350 and 1770 MHz for lower and higher frequency bands, respectively. The measured axial ratio bandwidth (AR < 3 dB) is yielded as 1450 MHz centred at 5.44 GHz for higher frequency band. The peak gains are measured as 4.3 and 4.15 dB for lower and higher frequency band, respectively. For the prototype antenna, substantial 3-dB beamwidth is found along with good cross polarisation suppression.
