Abstract
A microstrip-fed right angle-shaped slot antenna is enhanced to support user demands on wireless LAN applications. This paper presents procedure details on designing a right angle-shaped slot antenna for the conventional IEEE 802.11b/g, Wi-Fi standard, and extensional IEEE 802.11j operating in Japan. Some matching techniques to control the dual-frequency range characteristics are revealed. Effects of the ratio of the right angle-shaped slot arm length, the position and length of the feed line were evaluated. Method of moment (MoM) was adopted to analyze the characteristic of the proposed antenna. Antenna characteristics including return loss, VSWR and input impedance are shown. The simulation results show a remarkable microstrip-fed right angle-shaped slot antenna that can be utilized in 2.4 to 2.4835 GHz and 4.9 to 5.091 GHz bands. The return losses, at the center resonant frequencies, 2.43 GHz and 4.95 GHz, are lower than -35 dB with properly match with 50-ohm transmission line.
