Abstract :
A slotted elliptical antenna is designed and fabricated to meet the requirements for the WLAN applications. This antenna has a wideband, operating in the frequency range from 2.4 GHz to 6.65 GHz. A 50Ω microtsrip-line is used to feed the antenna. The radiation characteristics of this antenna are investigated with commercial available CST Microwave studio software. The design method is also described.
