Abstract

A tri-window printed monopole antenna with wideband characteristics is proposed in this paper. Compact size, uniform gain and stable radiation patterns at high frequencies make the proposed design a good candidate for its integration in portable communication devices. FR-4 with dielectric constant 4.4 and height 1.6mm has been used as substrate. Antenna having overall dimensions of 28.7 × 24.8 × 1.6 mm3 exhibits wideband characteristics ranging from 2.27 to 7.35 GHz at VSWR ≤ 2 applicable for WiBro (2.3-2.4 GHz), Bluetooth (2.4-2.484 GHz), Wi-Fi/WLAN/Hiper LAN/IEEE 802.11 2.4GHz (2412-2484 MHz), 3.6GHz (3657.5-3690.0MHz) and 4.9/5.0GHz (4915-5825MHz, 5.15-5.35 GHz, 5.47-5.725 GHz), LTE band 7 (2.5-2.69GHz), LTE band 22 (3.41-3.6 GHz) and WiMAX 2.3GHz (2.3-2.5GHz), 2.5GHz (2500-2690 MHz), 3.3GHz, 3.5GHz (3400-3600MHz) and 5.8GHz (5.6-5.9GHz).
