The design of a dual-band 2.45/5.2 GHz antenna for an access point of a wireless local area network (WLAN) is presented. The proposed antenna is formed by an assembly of a radial line slot array (RLSA) operating at 2.4 GHz and a microstrip patch working at 5.2 GHz. The design of this antenna system is accomplished using commercially available finite element software, high frequency structure simulator (HFSS), of Ansoft. The performance of the designed antenna is assessed in terms of return loss (RL), radiation pattern and polarization purity in the two investigated frequency bands.

Vertical handovers can transform heterogeneous networks into an integrated communication environment. Such integration can lead to seamless communication if context information is used to support vertical handovers. Seamless communication environments are needed for future pervasive/ubiquitous systems, which are context aware and can adapt to context changes, including network disconnections, changes in network quality of service and changes in user preferences. This paper describes a generic, context-aware handover solution for multimedia applications and illustrates how this handover works for redirection of communication between WLANs and GPRS or UMTS networks. A description of a prototype for WLAN/GPRS handover and the results of handover experiments are also presented.

The design of an antenna that combines a radial line slot array and a circular patch to operate as a dual band (2.4/5.2 GHz) antenna at the access point of a WLAN is presented. The design has been accomplished using commercially available Ansoft HFSS and in-house developed software. The designed antenna shows good performance in terms of return losses, radiation pattern and circular polarization in the two, 2.4 and 5.2 GHz, frequency bands. Due to its good electrical performance and a relatively low profile and low developmental cost, it should be found attractive for use as an access point antenna for dual band operation.
