Abstract

In this paper, two element planar dipole array antenna fed by the parallel line has been proposed for 2.4 GHz band wireless LAN mesh network. In the numerical analysis, the electromagnetic simulator ldquoWIPL-Drdquo based on the method of moment is used. This antenna is numerically and experimentally analyzed. The current distributions of antenna elements are controlled by adjusting the lengths of dipole elements and the distance between them. The directivity of more than 6.69 dBi has been obtained from 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz.
