Abstract
In this paper, a wideband two-layer H-shaped microstrip antenna for WLAN is designed. To increase the bandwidth of microstrip patch antenna a configuration of stacked type using parastic element is used. Furthermore, to reduce the size of microstrip patch antenna, two techniques are employed . the first one is H-shaped patch type and the second one is that the main radiator and parastic patch are shorted to the ground plane using ten shorting posts. The antenna bandwidth and radiation characteristics are calculated by ENSEMBLE ver. 5.0 simulation software, and compared with the experimental results. Experiment results show that the bandwidth of antenna in 740㎒ centered at 5.46㎓(13.5%), which is close agreement with the calculations, 770㎒(13%). Also, the antenna size can be reduced by 71.5% compared with the half wavelength rectangular microstrip antenna using the same substrate at the same frequency.
