Abstract :
A novel printed S-shaped monopole antenna for tri-band wireless local area network (WLAN) operation is presented. The antenna consists of two meander radiating strips leading to generate two separate resonant modes where the first mode is for the 2.4 GHz-band and the second mode is for the 5.2/5.8 GHz-band operation. The proposed antenna has a measured impedance bandwidths of 2.24-2.64 GHz and 4.95-6 GHz, and owns good radiation characteristics across the impedance bandwidths, with a compact size of 28 x 15 x 1.6 mm3 including the ground plane.
