Abstract
In this paper, a novel Coplanar Wire-Patch (CWP) antenna for 2.5 GHz applications is presented. This antenna has been fabricated using inkjet-printing technology on a flexible, low-cost paper substrate using a simple, fast and cheap process compared to the photolithography technology. The design characteristics of the antenna are verified and the experimental measurements are successfully compared to the simulated ones.
