A Dual-band CPW-fed Monopole Antenna for IMT-2000/WLAN

A novel and simple dual-band design of a coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed monopole antenna is proposed. By adding lateral patches to the sides of a pentagonal monopole, multi-resonant modes with two separate broad operating bands can be generated for wirel...
Over the past decade, extensive research on broad dual- or multi-band antennas, with low-profile, lightweight, flush mounted and single-feed to fit the limited equipment space of portable wireless devices, has contributed to the development of modern communication technology. In the past, a whole host of dual- or multi-band planar...
