Abstract :
In this paper, we design the one-sided directional slot antenna with quarter wavelength (λ/4) top metal layer, which is connected on the bottom metal layer, for 2.4GHz-band application. By using the two resonances appeared from the slot and λ/4 top metal, we can realize the one-sided directional radiation. We designed and simulated the proposed antenna by using the commercial electro-magnetic (EM) field simulator. This antenna is fabricated on FR4 printed circuit board and also carried out experiments on this antenna.
