Printed, multi‐loop‐antenna system integrated into a concurrent, dual‐WLAN‐band access point

Abstract: A printed, planar multi‐loop‐antenna system having high‐gain, quasi‐dual‐polarized radiation properties for concurrent, dual‐band WLAN operation in the 2.4 and 5.2 GHz bands is presented. The multi‐antenna design comprises four printed loop antennas arranged to be of a orthogonal configuration, printed on the same‐layer of a 1.6‐mm thick FR4 substrate, and one system PCB serving as an efficient reflector for the loops. The four antennas are set within the boundary of the PCB of the typical size for compact, ou… Show more

“…Two current nulls, denoted as a cross in the figure, are seen in the middle of the inverted-U-shaped loop above the coupling strip and on the antenna ground below the feed port. This behavior suggests that the inverted-U-shaped loop in combination with its image currents on the antenna ground exhibit a self-balanced, one-wavelength loop resonance [6][7][8][9][10][11]. Thus, the 2.4 GHz loop in this design can offer the self-isolated properties [3,4] when more than two of the said loops are employed in the multiple antenna system.…”

“…Loop and folded loop antennas have been favorable to applications in WLAN access points [16][17][18][19][20][21][22] and mobile phones [23][24][25][26][27] owing to their self-balanced structure of one-wavelength loops [16][17][18][19][20][21][22] and offering multi-resonant modes [23][24][25][26]. These loop antennas mainly operate at their half-, one-, and one-half-wavelength resonant modes, which make them larger than those quarter-wavelength antennas [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] and can not meet the size requirement as mentioned.…”

“…Multiantenna designs have been favorable to applications in the wireless local area network (WLAN) environment. To have more efficient spectrum usage, the multiantenna designs with concurrent dual-band operation in the 2.4 (2400-2484 MHz) and 5 GHz (5150-5825 MHz) bands have received much attention [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8], especially for the use of access points [3,[5][6][7][8]. In this case, two single-band antennas, one operating in the 2.4 GHz band and the other for 5 GHz operation, are often paired and skillfully designed.…”
