Abstract
A novel printed inverted-F antenna for dual-band WLAN is presented. The proposed design is based on the folded quarter-wave antennas, which have a conductor plate having two arms. An extremely thin prototype antenna is fabricated according to the simulation result. The obtained antenna can perform in IEEE802.11a, b(2.4~2.484 GHz and 5.15~5.35 GHz bands) and be adopted for laptop applications. All the measurements are performed in the actual test fixture.
