Spurred by the constant pressure to achieve miniaturization, researchers have designed many different types of compact antennas. One such type is the slotted patch antenna used for dual band operation. In this paper, we propose a novel method of selecting the feeding point of the antenna, which results in superior antenna performance in terms of return loss. Computer simulations verify the validity of the proposed method.

A dual-band tunable-slot-type ground radiation antenna is proposed. The feeding structure consists of a coplanar waveguide and a lumped capacitor to excite currents for first- and second-order resonant modes of the ground. The resonant frequencies of both bands are controlled using a series combination of a capacitor and an inductor. The proposed design may be an attractive choice for mobile devices owing to its compact geometry and tunable operating frequencies. The measurement and simulation results of the proposed antenna show good agreement, indicating good impedance matching and radiation performance.

This letter describes a dual-band compact monopole antenna with two branches for Wi-Fi applications. The proposed antenna is based on a planar monopole design, and composed of two branches of radiating patches for dual-band operation. The ground size of the antenna matches the ground size of a typical hand-held cellular phone for improved compatibility with mobile phone printed circuit boards. The antenna is designed using a simulator and fabricated with optimized parameters. The fabricated antenna is measured at the lower and higher operating frequencies, and the return loss coefficient, gain, and radiation patterns are determined.

This paper presents the design and measurement of a 2.4/5.2-GHz dual band VCO with a balanced frequency doubler in $0.18\;{\mu}m$ CMOS process. The topology of a 2.4 GHz VCO is a cross-coupled VCO with a LC tank and the frequency of the VCO is doubled by a frequency balanced doubler for a 5.2 GHz VCO. The gate bias matching network for class B operation in the balanced doubler is adopted to obtain as much power at 2nd harmonic output as possible. The average output powers of the 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz VCOs are -12 dBm and -13 dBm, respectively, the doubled VCO has fundamental harmonic suppression of -25 dB. The measured phase noises at 5 MHz frequency offset are -123 dBc /Hz from 2.6 GHz and -118 dBc /Hz from 5.1 GHz. The total size of the dual band VCO is $1.0\;mm{\times}0.9\;mm$ including pads.

In this paper, a dual-band open-ended circular ring moNopole antenna for WLAN(Wireless Local Area Networks) applications. The proposed antenna is based on a planar moNopole design, and composed of open-ended one circular ring of radiating patches for dual-band operation. To obtain the optimized parameters, we used the simulator, Ansoft's High Frequency Structure Simulator(HFSS) and found the parameters that effect antenna characteristics. Using the obtained parameters, the proposed antenna is fabricated. The fabricated antenna is measured at the operating frequencies(2.4-2.484 GHz, 5.15-5.825 GHz), and the return loss coefficient, gain, and radiation patterns are determined.

In this paper, a design method for a compact double dipole quasi-Yagi antenna with a V-shaped ground plane operating in dual bands including 2.45 GHz and 5 GHz wireless LAN frequency bands is studied. First, a quasi-Yagi antenna operating in the 2.45 GHz band is designed, and a V-shaped ground plane is used instead of a conventional strip ground plane to reduce the length of the antenna. A second dipole is connected to the dipole driver of the quasi-Yagi antenna for 2.45 GHz band and a director is appended for 5 GHz band operation. A prototype of the proposed dual-band antenna operating at 2.45 GHz WLAN band and 4.57-7.11 GHz band is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a dimension of 40 mm by 55 mm. Fabricated antenna shows frequency bands of 2.33-2.75 GHz and 4.38-7.5 GHz for a voltage standing wave ratio less than 2. Measured gain remains more than 4 dBi in both bands.

In this paper, a dual-band antenna is proposed for the autonomous vehicle as well as omni-directional. The proposed antenna operates in the 4G/LTE band (1,710~2,170MHz) and 5G/NR band (3,400~3,700MHz). In order to obtain the dual-band operation, the planar monopole antenna is proposed as the novel structure with single port of the 50ohm. To give the properties of dual-band, an additional antenna element with slit was added to the planar monopole antenna, and then a structural adjustment parameter was optimized for achieving the target performance in bands. The planar monopole antenna in the LTE band acts as the coupled feed for the added parasitic radiator in the 5G NR band. The proposed antenna has $38.5{\times}36.0{\times}1.0[mm^3]$ on a ground with diameter of 96mm. From the fabrication and measurement results, the impedance bandwidth (VSWR<2) of the proposed antenna covers 1,480~2,260MHz (LTE band: 1,710~2,170MHz) and 3,310~3,930MHz (5G NR band: 3,400~3,700MHz). The proposed planar monopole antenna also obtained the measured gain and radiation pattern of omni-directional radiation pattern in the anechoic chamber.

A novel design for a simple rectangular ring with open-ended monopole antenna wireless local area network (WLAN) applications is proposed in this article. The proposed antenna consists of an open-ended rectangular ring, an inverted L-strip, and a rectangular slit in the ground plane, and is fed by a 50 ${\Omega}$ microstrip feed-line. Prototypes of the proposed antenna were designed, fabricated, and tested. Experimental results show that the proposed antenna receives 2.3125-2.775 GHz and 4.8625-6.7125 GHz with a return loss less than -10 dB, covering the required bandwidths of the 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN standards. Meanwhile, the 2D radiation patterns and 3D gain performance of the antenna in the operation bands were also observed and discussed.

This paper presents a dual band loop-type ground antenna using lumped-elements that control the impedance bandwidth and resonant frequency. The dual-band operation of the proposed antenna is realized by inserting an additional resonated loop feed structure into the reference ground antenna. As the proper value of the capacitor and the inductor are chosen, the impedance bandwidth of our antenna with voltage standing wave ratio(VSWR) equal to 3 is 85 MHz and 725 MHz at the 2.45 and 5.5 GHz frequency band, respectively. Its validity is demonstrated via both the computed and measured results. Good antenna patterns and efficiencies are achieved at the dual frequency bands, as well as the physically small antenna element size($10{\times}5mm^2$).
