Multi-band modified fork-shaped monopole antenna with dual L-shaped parasitic plane

Abstract: A novel microstrip-fed printed monopole antenna is proposed for WLAN and WiMAX applications. Using a modified fork-shaped strip, multiple impedance bandwidths covering 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN and 5.5 GHz WiMAX bands are obtained. In addition, a dual L-shaped parasitic plane is inserted on the bottom of the FR4 substrate to cover the 3.5 GHz WiMAX band. Omnidirectional radiation patterns with appreciable gains over the operating bands are obtained by the fabricated antenna with a compact size of 34.5 × 18 mm 2 . T… Show more

“…A fork-shaped radiating patch with an inverted T-shape parasitic [9] structure, a G-shaped slots ground plane and a small square monopole antenna with an inverted T-shaped slot and conductor-backed plane with different shapes such as Ω and Γ are used for enhancement of antenna bandwidth and making notches band characteristic [9,10]. Fork shaped antenna with different formations and parasitic elements such as L-shaped conductor-backed elements are used for UWB applications [11,12]. Microstrip slot antennas with different slot shapes, e.g., T-shape [13], H-shape [14], U-shape and L-shape [14] used to obtain the favorable frequency band notch, have been studied.…”

“…However, narrow-bandwidth characteristic of individual mode is one of the limitations for PIFA, and its 3D structure may be a fabrication challenge [4]. Numerous techniques for multiband planar monopole antenna design have been presented in literature, e.g., Land U-shaped slots [5], an additional strip [6], multiresonator-loaded structures including a pair of symmetrical edge resonators and a T-shaped stub resonator [7], U-shaped slot with paper substrate [8], dual inverted L-shaped strips [9], two spiral ring strips [10], a modified fork-shaped strip [11], a chopped circular radiator appended with a meander line and an L-strip coupled element [12], a slot-ring antenna with single-and dual-capacitive coupled patch [13], a rhombic patch with modified minkowski fractal geometry [14], and a two-strip monopole loaded with a chip capacitor and an L-shape high-pass filter [15]. However, design of a compact multiband monopole antenna with sufficient bandwidth at three frequency bands remains a challenge.…”
