Abstract :
A meander antenna is proposed in this letter. The antenna is designed at 2.4GHz. Two meander antennas are used, one is placed horizontally and other is placed vertically. A microstrip fed is given to both antennas. The antenna is simulated and return loss(S11) of -29.88dB at 2.40GHz is obtained. The proposed antenna can be used for polarization diversity and this can be used in wireless communication as a polarization reconfigurable antenna.
