            Abstract : 
In this paper, electrically small slot antenna with a transmission line based impedance matching circuit have been designed. Moreover, the proposed antenna is mounted on the 2.4GHz-band sensor node system. The antenna size is 3.1mm x 13.1 mm and total sensor node sizes is 35mm x 35mm, respectively. Proposed ESA is very advantageous for miniaturization of RF devices.
