Abstract :
In this paper, a multi-band planar printed monopole antenna for wireless communication system is presented. The antenna has been designed based on meander lines monopole printed elements and the rectangular ground structure. The each element of meander lines is designed with a half wavelength to radiate at a frequency of 3.6 and 5.8 GHz for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) application. The 50 ohm probe feed SMA type is used to feed the signal into the antenna structure. The proposed antenna is designed and simulated by using Computer Simulation Technology (CST) software. The antenna performance is analyzed in term of the return loss, bandwidth, gain, directivity, surface current and radiation pattern at the design frequency. The bandwidth of reflection coefficient which are less than - 10 dB can be seen at (f1-f2) 125 MHz, (f1-f2) 359 MHz and (f1-f2) 197 MHz.
