Abstract: | A compact CPW-fed monopole antenna is proposed for dual-band wireless local area network (WLAN) operations. The proposed antenna, which consists of two strips, has compact size of 20/spl times/15.5/spl times/1.6 mm/sup 3/ including the ground. The proposed antenna effectively covers both 2.4 GHz (2.4-2.484 GHz) and 5 GHz (5.15-5.825 GHz) bands. The measured peak gains are 1.3 dBi at 2.44 GHz and 2.8 dBi at 5.32 GHz. |
