Abstract

This paper presents a co-axial fed compact rectangular microstrip antenna with multi-layer arrangement for WLAN band (2.4-2.48, 5.15-5.825 GHz) applications. The designed antenna consist of rectangular patch with two open ended L shaped slots and ground plane with of two open ended rectangular slots. The antenna with single layer arrangement shows two resonant bands in PCS (1.851GHz-1.91GHz) and WiMAX (3.287-3.934GHz) frequency range. The multi layer configuration results in two resonant states of the proposed antenna in WLAN frequency range with maximum gain around 4.96dbi.
