Abstract :
The variations of Coplanar Wave guide fed hexagonal micro strip antennas with hexagonal slot ground plane are proposed in 3000 MHz frequency band. The first variation of hexagonal shaped micro strip antenna yields impedance bandwidth of more than 108% which covers Wi-MAX and WLAN bands. The hexagonal shaped patch is rotated in 300 backed by the same ground plane. This configuration yields higher bandwidth of nearly 115%. The proposed configurations show broadside radiation pattern with a gain of more than 6 dBi over most of the bandwidth.
