Abstract

A novel microstrip fed dual-band design patch antenna with two parasitic invert L stubs for 2.4/5- GHz wireless applications is presented in this paper. Printed on a dielectric substrate of FR4 with relative permittivity of 4.4 and thickness of 1 mm, and fed by a 50Ω microstrip line, the patch antenna with two parasitic invert L stubs is demonstrated to generate three resonant modes to cover 2.4/5.2/5.8- GHz wireless local area network (WLAN) bands with satisfactory radiation characteristics. Experimental and simulated S parameters are presented. Parameters sweep and simulated radiation patterns are demonstrated.
