Abstract :
A triple-band WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) monopole antenna has been proposed based on concepts called capacitive loading/de-loading and inductive loading/de-loading. It has been demonstrated that triple-band WLAN operations including the IEEE 802.11 2.4 GHz (2.4- 2.484 MHz), 5.2 GHz (5.15-5.35 MHz) and 5.8 GHz (5.725 MHz-5.825 MHz) can be achieved by using the monopole antenna with an overall size 8.0 x 9.0 x 1.0 (mm)3, which is probably the most compact WLAN monopole antenna covering the three frequency bands.
