Abstract :
This paper has focused on the development of multi-band planer inverted-F antenna for use in the three bands WiMAX application. Four slots have been added on the radiated patch to give the required three bands for the WiMAX 2.6, 3.6 and 5.6 GHz, the effect of each slot has been discussed. Both simulated and measured results have been presented.
