Novel Asymmetric U-Shaped Slot Antenna with WLAN Application

Abstract

Abstract-A novel asymmetric U-Shaped slot antenna with WLAN application is proposed and fabricated. The proposed antenna consists of an asymmetric U-shaped slot and an inverted L-shaped slot which are designed to applied to WLAN devices, in addition, fed by a coplanar waveguide (CPW) Furthermore, Good agreement is achieved between the measurement and simulation, which indicates that a 10-dB bandwidth of 21.8% from 2.25 to 2.8 GHz which completely cover the WALN (2.4 -2.48 GHz) band is covered in the designed antenna. Meanwhile, compared to other recent works, a single layer structure, and a more compact size are the key features of the proposed antenna.
