            Abstract : 
With the addition of dual shorted L-shaped strip-sleeves, a novel dual-broadband T-shaped printed monopole antenna for 2.4/5.8 GHz WLAN has been proposed and experimentally studied. The obtained impedance bandwidths can reach about 35% for the 2.4 GHz band and 10.0% for the 5.8 GHz band, which both meet the required bandwidth specifications of the IEEE 802.11a/b/g standards. The measured peak antenna gains for the operating frequencies across dual WLAN bands are measured to be, respectively, 3.4 and 1.0 dBi, with the gain variations within 0.8 dBi.
