Abstract:
The use of a single antenna which can
cover a wide range of frequencies is a desirable
feature for future wireless communications
systems. The emerging self-organising and ad-hoc
networks require more than an octave of
bandwidth to facilitate multiband operation. A
shorted planar monopole antenna is optimised for
future wireless networking bands by suitable
choice of planar dimension and feedgap
separation. The antenna offers a return-loss
greater than 10 dB from 1.60 GHz to 5.90 GHz.
The radiation pattern is shown to be quasiomnidirectional
within the 10 dB return-loss
bandwidth. Antenna properties are compared
with the simple planar monopole.
