Abstract

In this paper, a microstrip-fed dual-band monopole antenna with two arc-shaped lines for WLAN(: Wireless Local Area Networks) applications was designed, fabricated and measured. The proposed antenna is based on a microstrip-fed structure, and composed of two arc-shaped lines and then designed in order to get dual band characteristics. We used the simulator, Ansoft's High Frequency Structure Simulator(: HFSS) and carried out simulation about parameters L2, L5, and with/without slit to get the optimized parameters. The proposed antenna is made of $13.0{\times}34.0{\times}1.0 mm^3$ and is fabricated on the permittivity 4.4 FR-4 substrate($12.0{\times}34.0{\times}1.0mm^3$). The experiment results are shown that the proposed antenna obtained the -10 dB impedance bandwidth 360 MHz (2.29~2.65 GHz) and 1,245 MHz (4.705~5.95 GHz) covering the WLAN bands. Also, the measured gain and radiation patterns characteristics of the proposed antenna are presented at required dual-band(2.4 GHz band/5.0 GHz band), respectively.

본 논문에서는 WLAN 시스템에 적용 가능한 두 개의 원호 모양의 선로를 갖는 모노폴 안테나를 설계, 제작 및 측정하였다. 제안된 안테나는 마이크로스트립 급전을 바탕으로 두 개의 원호 모양의 선로를 갖도록 설계하여 이중대역 특성을 갖도록 하였다. 상용 툴인 HFSS을 사용하여 L2, L5, 슬릿유무에 대한 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 최적화된 수치를 얻었다. 제안된 안테나의 크기($12.0{\times}29.5{\times}1.0mm^3$)는 유전율 4.4인 FR-4 기판($13.0{\times}34.0{\times}1.0 mm^3$) 위에 설계 및 제작되었다. 제작 결과, 제안된 안테나는 -10 dB 임피던스 대역폭을 기준으로 360 MHz(2.29~2.65 GHz) 그리고 1,245 MHz (4.705~5.95 GHz)의 대역폭을 얻었다. 또한, 제안된 안테나의 측정 이득과 방사패턴 특성이 요구되는 이중대역에서 제시되었다.
