Abstract :
Given the potential market for wireless LAN (WLAN) technology, multiple-sector antenna arrays are known to be able to provide capacity enhancement by means of interference reduction. In this paper, the switched-sector planar antenna will be designed with nine-direction radiation pattern on single PCB board The kind of antenna can act as an Access Point (AP) in indoor WLAN.
