Abstract

In this paper an Ultra Wideband Monopole antenna is designed for various WLAN and WiMAX applications. The antenna is designed using CST Microwave Studio Suite™. Iterative patch structures are considered to obtain optimized result. The finalized monopole is proposed to be applicable in the WLAN bands (5.2/5.8 GHz) and WiMAX bands (3.5/5.5 GHz). The antenna exhibits a gain of 2.9 dB, 3.7 dB, 3.8 dB and 4.0 dB at frequencies 3.5 GHz, 5.2 GHz, 5.5 GHz and 5.8 GHz respectively. The antenna exhibits a wide bandwidth of 3.5 GHz to 7 GHz respectively.
