Design of Octagon Monopole Dual Frequency Indoor Positioning Beacon Antenna

Abstract

Aiming at the antenna performance requirements of Bluetooth and UWB indoor positioning system, an octagon monopole dual-frequency indoor positioning beacon antenna is made. The antenna can operate in both UWB and Bluetooth communication bands. The antenna performance is improved by grooving the antenna and adding metal strips. The use of curved and gradual structure feeders also makes the antenna get better bandwidth performance.
