Abstract :
A monopole printed patch antenna parasitically fed by an inverted-L shaped monopole is proposed for broadband applications in IEEE 802.11a/HiperLAN2 bands. The effect of various physical parameters, such as, dimensions of the parasitic element, coupling between inverted-L shaped monopole feed and the parasitic element is studied. A prototype antenna is fabricated with its dimensions optimized and its simulated and measured results are compared. The antenna offers a wide bandwidth of 60% in the IEEE 802.11a/HiperLAN2 bands
