Abstract :
In this paper, a novel compact coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed monopole antenna is proposed for dual-band WLAN operations. The proposed antenna consists of two strips with a total size of 29 mm times 15 mm times 1.5 mm, achieving the -10 dB bandwidths of 22.2% and 17.4% for 2.4 GHz- and 5.5 GHzbands, respectively, which effectively cover IEEE 802.11 a/b/g systems. Details of the antenna design are described, and both simulated and measured results are presented and discussed
