Planar Rhombic Arm Dipole Antenna with Parasitic Elements for Wireless Applications

A printed dipole, with integrated parasitic elements, features a broad operating bandwidth. A conventional antenna design was implemented and the single-band characteristics (2.4 to 2.9 GHz) were measured. The insertion of symmetrical parasitic element...
