Neha Ahuja, Rajesh Khanna, Jaswinder Kaur . Design of Single Band Rectangular Patch Antenna for WLAN Application. International Conference on Recent Advances and Future Trends in Information Technology (iRAFIT 2012). IRAFIT, 8 (April 2012), 29-31.
A microstrip patch antenna for WLAN application is proposed. The antenna has a frequency bandwidth of 196 MHz (5103MHz - 5300 MHz). The microstrip antenna has a planar geometry and consists of a ground, a substrate, a patch and a feed. The basic theory and design are analyzed, and simulation using CST Microwave Studio commercial software is employed to optimize the antenna's properties. Results show that the proposed antenna has promising characteristics for WLAN application at 5.21 GHz frequency.
