Abstract :
This paper demonstrates a simple and compact CPW-fed T-shaped printed antenna for WiMAX 3.5 GHz applications. A prototype has been designed, fabricated and tested. The measured results show that the operating frequency of the antenna is from 3.26 GHz to 4.28 GHz for a return loss of better than -10 dB. Satisfactory radiation patterns have also been obtained through simulation.
