Compact Uniplanar Antenna for Multiband Applications

A dual band RFID applications in 800 900 MHz and 2400 MHz band is presented. The Asymmetric Coplanar Strip (ACS) fed antenna consists of inverted L shaped monopole with a capacitive loading to provide necessary impedance matching and current distribution. The antenna has wide bandwidth from 790 MHz tol050 MHz and from 2350 MHz to 2640 MHz coving the RFID UHF and Microwave frequencies. The uniplanar antenna having overall dimensions of 48 mm x 14 mm is printed on one side of a substrate of dielectric constant 4.4 and height 1.6 mm.

Compact CPW-fed uniplanar antenna for multiband wireless applications

A compact coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed uniplanar antenna for Quad-band applications is presented. The Quad-band operation is realized by imposing various current paths in a modified T-shaped radiating element. The antenna covers GSM 900, DCS 1800, IEEE802.11.a, IEEE802.11.b and HiperLAN-2 bands and exhibits good radiation characteristics. This low profile antenna has a dimension of 32mm×31mmwhen printed on a substrate of dielectric constant 4.4 and height 1.6mm. Details of design with experimental and simulated results are presented
