Abstract :
Dual-band operation of a printed dipole antenna with U-slotted arms is presented. Due to the embedded U-shaped slots, two additional dipole arms are obtained in the proposed design, which form a second dipole antenna with a smaller length and which can generate a higher resonant mode for the 5.2 GHz band operation. By incorporating the original dipole arms designed for the 2.4 GHz band operation, the proposed antenna can perform WLAN operations in the 2.4 and 5.2 GHz bands.
