A Compact Dual-Band ACS-Fed Frequency Independent Hook Loop Antenna for WLAN Applications

, ORCID Icon, ORCID Icon, &
Published online: 30 Aug 2023
 

ABSTRACT

Presented in this paper is a simple, small-sized, and hook-shaped monopole antenna fed by an Asymmetric Coplanar Strip (ACS) for different dual-band operations. The antenna operates at 3.5 and 5.2 GHz; hence, serving WiMAX and WLAN applications. Dual resonances were attained by integrating a quarter-wavelength strip with a C-shaped half-wavelength loop strip. The proposed antenna footprint is 20 × 7.9 mm2. Based on the achieved outcomes and the antenna compactness, it can be highly nominated for use in 3.5/5 GHz wireless communications applications and wireless gadgets.
