(2010), Double U-slots patch antenna for tri-band wireless systems. International Journal of RF and Microwave Computer-Aided Engineering, 20: 279–285, which has been published in final form at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mmce.20431/abstract |
| Abstract: | ABSTRACT: A compact microstrip patch antenna with two U-slots shape is presented.
Detailed simulation and experimental investigation are conducted to understand the behavior
of the two U-slots. The proposed antenna generates three resonant frequencies at 2.7, 3.3, and
5.3 GHz. It can, therefore, be used in Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access compliant
communication equipment. The proposed antenna has two U-slot shaped and two
bridge elements to connect both shapes together to adapt the structure to the desired interest
operating frequency. A comprehensive parametric study has been applied to understand the
effect of each U-slot on the antenna’s performance. Moreover, the current distribution for the
three bands is investigated to give further understanding of the antenna behavior. The proposed
antenna is verified experimentally and the simulated and measured results are in good
agreement. |
