Dual-Band Split-Ring Antenna Design for WLAN Applications

Authors: S. CUMHUR BAŞARAN, YUNUS E. ERDEMLİ

Abstract: A dual-band microstrip antenna based on split-ring elements is introduced for WLAN (2.4/5.2 GHz) applications. The proposed split-ring antenna (SRA) has a compact novel design which provides about 2% impedance-bandwidth without a need for additional matching network. Analysis and design of the proposed microstrip antenna is carried out by means of full-wave simulators based on the finite-element method.

Keywords: Split-ring, microstrip antenna, dual-band, WLAN, and finite-element method
