Abstract

In this paper, a novel triple band (f₁, f₂, f₃) antenna for Universal Serial Bus (USB) dongle applications is proposed. The proposed antenna is made up a monopole antenna along with top and bottom parasitic resonators. f₁ is obtained by the whole length of the antenna. The monopole antenna acts as the main radiator for f₃ and also as the coupling feeding structure for the parasitic resonators in f₁, f₂. The f₂ resonance is obtained by connecting the top and bottom parasitic resonators through a via. The 10dB reflection coefficient bandwidth of the proposed antenna is compatible with the WLAN (2400-2485 & 5150-5850 MHz) and WiMAX (3400-3600 MHz) bands.
