There are many researches to increase bandwidth of the microstrip patch antenna for wireless LAN. In spite of broad bandwidth, Bow-Tie antenna has disadvantages that are low gain and big size. In this paper, stacked Bow-Tie microstrip patch antenna for wireless LAN is designed in 5.725 ~5.825 GHz band. This antenna has characteristics that are broadband bandwidth, high gain and small size compared with microstrip patch antenna. In simulated results, the return loss is -34.2 dB at 5.78 GHz and bandwidth is 11.345% for VSWR 2:1 and 7.75%for VSWR 1.5:1. In measured results, the return loss is -38.45 dB at 5.78 GHz and bandwidth is 13% for VSWR 2:1 and 5.6% for VSWR 1.5:1. It has 73.16$^{\circ}$ -3dB beam width and 6.5dB gain.

In this paper, IEEE 802.11 based WLAN(5.2/5.8GHz) wideband Weathercock-shaped microstrip patch antenna was designed and manufactured. The antenna has a size of $17.4{\times}17.4mm^2$ and utilized FR-4 board.

This paper proposed a 2 stages 2-arm sinuous antenna that operates in frequency range 0.8-6GHz. The proposed antenna's total radius is 60mm, in which 1st stage's radius is 50mm which is designed as self-complementary structure(cell's angle width $90^{\circ}$) with 8 cell, and 2nd stage is composed of non-self-complementary structure with 0.5 cell of cell's angle width $720^{\circ}$ in the radius width 10mm. Measurement's result shows that -10dB return loss starts at 0.807GHz, but 1 stage 2-arm sinuous antenna that use the same radius starts at about 0.878GHz, so proposed the possibility of the miniaturization of the sinuous antenna.

In this paper, we propose a quadruple band antenna for GPS/WLAN/WiMAX application. The proposed antenna has quadruple band characteristics by considering the interconnection of four strip lines and DGS on the ground place. The total substrate size is 20.0 mm (W1) ⨯27.0 mm (L1), thickness (h) 1.0 mm, and the dielectric constant is 4.4, which is made of 20.0 mm (W2)⨯ 27.0 mm (L8 + L6+ L10) antenna size on the FR-4 substrate. From the fabrication and measurement results, bandwidths of 60 MHz (1.525 to 1.585 GHz) bandwidth for GPS band, 825 MHz (3.31 to 4.135 GHz) bandwidth for WiMAX band and 480 MHz (2.395 to 2.975 GHz) and 385 MHz (5.10 to 5.485 GHz) bandwidth for WLAN band were obtained on the basis of -10 dB. Also, gain and radiation pattern characteristics are measured and shown in the frequency of triple band as required.

In this paper, a planar antenna with monopole-like radiation pattern for on-body communications is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of three split-rings(SR) to generate a monopole-like radiation characteristic. To account for the on-body application, the proposed antenna is designed to have a low-profile. The antenna has an overall dimensions of $0.29{\lambda}_0{\times}0.29{\lambda}_0{\times}0.008{\lambda}_0$ at 5.8 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical(ISM) band(5.725~5.875 GHz). To verify the body effect, a two-thirds muscle equivalent semi solid phantom is fabricated and used to measure the antenna performance. The 10-dB return loss bandwidth is 280 MHz(5.68~5.96 GHz) and the measured peak gain is 1.91 dBi.

In this paper, we designed a microstrip patch antenna that can be applied to the Wimax/LTE 5G system among wireless media usable in coastal ships. The substrate of the proposed antenna is FR-4 (er=4.3), the size is 22 mm × 30 mm, and it can be used in the 3.5 GHz and 5.8 GHz bands of Wimax/LTE 5G by constructing a simple structure using a microstrip patch antenna. CST Microwave Studio 2014 was used for simulation, and the gain of the simulation result is 2.41dB at 2.4 GHz and 3.96 dB at 3.5 GHz. S-Parameter also showed a result of less than -10 dB (VSWR 2:1) in the desired frequency band, and designed a small variable and a miniaturized antenna so that the antenna can be used in mobile phones or electronic devices.

In this paper, a quad-band antenna for DCS1800, PCS1900, WCDMA, WLAN and Mobile WiMAX application is proposed. The proposed antenna is a printed monopole structure, and consists of two rectangular ring-shaped radiating patches on the front side and two different size of L-shaped slots on the back side(ground plane). Two rectangular ring radiation patches are respectively resonant at 2 GHz and 3.5 GHz bands, and additional resonance is occurred at 5.3 GHz by the coupling effect between two ring patches. In addition, the optimized matching characteristic is obtained by controlling the gaps. Also, by adding two L-slots on the ground plane, additional resonant frequency band of 5.6 GHz is occurred. Finally the measured bandwidths of the proposed antenna below -10 dB return loss are 1,200 MHz(1.6~2.8 GHz), 800 MHz(3.2~4.0 GHz), 300 MHz(5.14~5.44 GHz), and 690 MHz(5.56~6.25 GHz). The radiation patterns have the omni-directional characteristic, and the measured antenna average gains at resonant bands are 0.86~4.07 dBi.

In this paper, to implement the electromagnetic wave environment and solve electromagnetic compatibility(EMC) problem, miniaturization of ultra-wide band log periodic dipole antenna for measurement was investigated. In addition, in oder to improve the signal-to-noise ratio in high frequency band, balun was connected to the antenna to stabilize the operation of the differential mode antenna and the single mode coaxial cable. To minimize the total size and to increase bandwidth of the antenna, a fat dipole structure was used for the resonance frequency band below 4 GHz and a general dipole shape was used for that above 4 GHz. The bandwidth of the proposed antenna was represented from 0.6 GHz to 8.0 GHz with a ratio bandwidth of 12.3 : 1. Measured peak gain varies from 5.7 dBi to 9.1 dBi, and a half power beamwidth was presented from $29.4^{\circ}$ to $100.2^{\circ}$ in operating range.

This paper was studied the double-band monopole antenna design with Mu-negative metamaterial unit cell, which operates at 700MHz and 2.45GHz band. Mu-negative unit cell made of the interdigital capacitor structure to operate a double-band antenna by inserting it into an antenna radiator unit. In addition, the parasitic conductor is implemented on the back side of the antenna radiation part, so that the resonance point of the antenna can be controlled and the bandwidth is improved. Finally, we implemented an antenna operating in the 750MHz UHD band and the 2.45GHz WiFi band. The designed antenna has a size of $200{\times}100mm^2$. Experimental results show that the 8dB bandwidth and gain characteristics at 750MHz band are 320MHz(42.7%), 5.28dB, 6dB bandwidth and gain at 2.45GH are 540MHz (21.6%), -0.46dB. From the experimental results, we confirmed that the resonance point with theoretical value is in agreement with experimental value, and the radiation patterns are have the omnidirectional characteristic in both bands.
