Abstract

This research presents the design and implementation of a dual-band patch antenna (DBPA) optimized for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. The antenna features a modified rectangular patch with a cut corner and two parasitic rectangular patches, enabling dual-band operation with enhanced gain. The DBPA is fed by a 50-Ohm coplanar waveguide and fabricated on a single-layer copper circuit board using a flame-retardant 4 substrate with a relative permittivity of 4.3 and a thickness of 1.6 mm. A prototype with compact dimensions of 0.040×0.040×0.0009 λ³ was constructed and experimentally evaluated. Measurements reveal a nearly omnidirectional radiation pattern, achieving peak gains of 2.92 dBi at 2.4 GHz and 4.25 dBi at 5 GHz. The antenna demonstrates a wide 10 dB return loss bandwidth of 67.7% (1.7–3.44 GHz) for the lower band and 56% (4.59–8.16 GHz) for the upper band. The strong agreement between simulated and measured results validates the design’s potential for practical and scalable implementation. This DBPA design offers a simpler, more compact, and wider-bandwidth alternative to conventional antennas, making it ideal for modern WLAN systems.

Abstract

This research exhibits a design of a dual-band patch antenna (DBPA) implemented by a rectangular shape incorporated into a circular patch together with a pair of half-wavelength inverted U-slots (HWIUSs) with the single feed for 2.4/5 GHz wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. For this work, the HWIUSs are key in designing a dual-band antenna. The DBPA is fed by a 50-Ohm microstrip line, printed on a copper layer overlaid on an FR4 substrate with a relative permittivity of 4.3 and height of 1.6 mm, while the bottom layer is backed by a partial ground plane. An antenna prototype with a dimension of 0.384λ_L×0.304λ_L×0.013λ_L was contrived and admeasured to verify the simulation. The measurement provides a nearly omnidirectional pattern with a 2.55 and 3.3 dBi peak gain covering a dual-band 10 dB return loss bandwidth of 15% (2.4–2.8 GHz) and 20% (4.96–5.86 GHz), respectively. Noticeably, simulated |S11| and radiation patterns are reasonable following experimental results showing its potential in 2.4/5 GHz WLAN services.
