Abstract
A novel compact modified inverted-L monopole antenna for dual-band operation is proposed. The proposed antenna is designed to operate in 2.4 GHz (2400-2484 MHz) and 5 GHz (5150-5825 MHz) bands for WLAN applications in IEEE 802.11a/b and HIPERLAN/2 systems. The method to realise the desired dual-band operation is by introducing a meandered wire and a conducting triangular section to a conventional inverted-L monopole, which results in a small antenna size of 7×18 mm2. Good impedance bandwidth performance is also observed.
