A Novel Dual-band Small Size Microstrip AntennaAbstract
A new small size dual-band microstrip antenna structure is proposed. The antenna consists of two resonant elements designed separately and integrated in such a manner to improve the compactness of the dual band structure and maintain the performance of each element. The structure is analyzed using lumped element approach and design curves are produced. The proposed approach is validated through a design example using theoretical curves and simulations. Implementation of an antenna operating in the 900 MHz and 1800 MHz bands is presented and comparisons between simulated and experimental results are given.
