Abstract

This paper proposed the dual band printed omnidirectional antenna for RFID applications at 2.45GHz. This antenna is made up from the double U-stubs and meander collinear structure. The antenna is based on the microstrip type of antenna. The return loss of the proposed antenna at 2.45GHz is -10.61dB and the bandwidth is 122MHz. The gain that has been achieved for this proposed antenna is 3.798dB.
