In this paper, a novel triple-band circular-ring monopole antenna with a half-circular ring and ground slot for wireless local area network/Worldwide Interoperability of Microwave Access (WLAN/WiMAX) applications is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of one circular ring, a half-circular ring and a rectangular slot in the ground plane. Based on the concept, a prototype of the proposed triple-band antenna was designed, fabricated and tested. The numerical and experiment results demonstrated that the proposed antenna satisfied the -10 dB impedance bandwidth requirement while simultaneously covering the WLAN and WiMAX bands. Furthermore, this paper presents and discusses the 2D radiation patterns and 2D gains according to the results of the experiment.

A novel design of a simple circular ring with open-ended monopole antenna for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications is proposed in this article. The proposed antenna consists of an open-ended circular ring and $50-{\Omega}$ microstrip feed-line. The proposed antenna is capable of generating two separate resonant modes with good impedance-matching conditions. A prototype of the proposed antenna is designed, fabricated, and measured. Acceptable agreement between the measurement and simulation results is achieved. Experimental results show that the proposed antenna has operating bandwidths of 1.99-3.04 GHz and 5.08-6.1 GHz with a return loss of less than -10 dB, covering the required bandwidths of the 2.4/5.2/5.8-GHz WLAN standards. This is a microstrip antenna for IEEE 802.11a/b wireless local area networks applications. Meanwhile, the two-dimensional (2D) radiation patterns and three-dimensional (3D) gain performance of the antenna are also observed and discussed.

A method for miniaturization of microstrip patch antenna without degrading its radiation characteristics is investigated. The ring geometry introduces additional parameters to the antenna that can be used to control its resonance frequency and bandwidth. For a single square ring increasing the size of patch decreases the resonance frequency and bandwidth. To match the antenna to a transmission line and also enhance its bandwidth. the square ring patch is stacked by a square ring patch. The computed results are compared with experiment and good agreement is obtained.

본 논문에서는 우리나라 FM(Frequency Modulation) 방송국에서 송신용 안테나로 사용하고 있는 CP(circularly polarized)-dipole 안테나와 CP(circularly polarized)-ring 안테나에 대해 실제 전계 강도 측정을 통한 안테나의 전파 방사 패턴을 조사하고, 현장 적용에 대해 비교 고찰하였다. 비교 결과, 송·중계소가 방송국의 방송 서비스 지역의 한 가운데에 위치하는 경우에는 CP-dipole 안테나(4방향)가 유용하며, 후방에 있는 철탑의 반사 효과로 인해 지향 특성을 갖는 CP-ring 안테나는 지향 방향의 조정을 통하여 타 지역으로의 전파 월경 방지는 물론 주요 서비스 방향으로 5∼9dB 높은 전파를 방사할 수 있었다. 특히, 송·중계소가 서비스 구역의 한 쪽 방향에 위치하여 3방향으로 전파를 방사하는 경우가 많은 우리나라에서는 CP-ring 안테나를 사용하여 안테나의 지향 방향을 인구 및 도로 밀집 지역으로 집중하여 방송 수신 환경을 개선시킬 수 있다.

This paper presents a novel design for a simple rectangular ring with an open-ended monopole antenna that is well suited to DCS/PCS/UMTS/WLAN applications for dual-band operations. A microstrip-fed rectangular monopole antenna is first designed and then modified to introduce the rectangular ring with an open-ended antenna and a rectangular slit in the ground plane. Prototypes of the proposed antenna were fabricated and tested. The antenna, resonating at 1,405 MHz and 4,840 MHz, has a -10 dB impedance bandwidth of about 1,695 and 1,530 MHz (1,220~2,815 and 4,495~6,025 MHz), or about 79.06 % and 29.09 %. The observed 2D radiation patterns and 3D gain performance of the antenna in the operation bands are discussed.

본 논문에서는 GPS와 위성 DMB에 사용할 수 있는 이중 모드 annular ring 패치 안테나를 제안하였다. 제안된 안테나는 커플링 급전과 annular ring 패치의 네 개의 슬롯을 특징으로 한다. 급전 선로와 패치 사이의 간격은 입력 임피던스를 조절하는 역할을 하고, 패치의 슬롯의 길이는 DMB 주파수에 해당하는 $TM_{21}$ 모드의 공진 주파수를 조절하는 역할을 한다. 제안된 안테나를 제작 및 측정을 하였다. 제작된 안테나는 GPS와 DMB 주파수에서 만족할만한 대역폭을 가지고 공진을 일으키며, GPS 대역에서는 broadside 방사 패턴을 가지고 DCS 대역에서는 코니컬 빔 방사 패턴을 가진다.

To enhance the impedance bandwidth of the wide slot antenna, we proposed the wide slot structure with CPW-fed which is combined with four ${\lambda}/2$ rectangular radiation modified monopole and inductively coupled. The measured impedance bandwidth is about 2.5 GHz(3.65~6.15 GHz) then less -10 dB.
