In this paper, the compact CPW-fed slot antenna for WLAN applications is proposed. While the proposed antenna with size of only $20{\times}18{\times}1mm^3$ is consisted of double stub and folded slot, the antenna for 2.4 GHz band and 5 GHz band is designed and fabricated with optimized parameters obtained by simulation. Proposed antenna is fabricated with FR-4 substrate to the thickness of 1.0 mm. By obtaining the measured return loss level of < -10 dB at dual-band, we showed that it is operated as antenna for WLAN applications, and then it is also expected to be usable as antenna for RFID.

In this paper, the compact CPW-fed antenna with triple folded patch for dual-band WLAN applications is proposed. As the conventional double inverted-L antenna is changed into the C-shaped patch and double inverted-L antenna, the antenna overcomes the narrow-band characteristics according to the miniaturization of the antenna.

A hierarchical network between Mobile-WiMAX and WLAN systems is to make it possible to utilize wireless internet services including time sensitive applications such as VoIP, VOD, visual telephony etc. During the process of vertical handoff decision from Mobile-WiMAX to WLAN hotspot, vertical handoff delay causes user dissatisfaction because it doesn't provide the seamless wireless internet service. We make use of type of service (ToS) parameters in IEEE 802.16e specification as the criterion parameter of vertical handoff decision process in hierarchical Mobile-WiMAX/WLAN networks. In this paper, we propose the process of vertical handoff decision for seamless wireless internet service which is sensitive to time delay. If type of service is time sensitive application, the decision of vertical handoff is withdrawn until the service is terminated. In focus on user satisfaction, if the proposed traffic management strategy in hierarchical Mobile-WiMAX/WLAN networks is used, user will utilize seamless wireless internet services including time sensitive applications.

A novel design of a simple circular ring with open-ended monopole antenna for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications is proposed in this article. The proposed antenna consists of an open-ended circular ring and $50-{\Omega}$ microstrip feed-line. The proposed antenna is capable of generating two separate resonant modes with good impedance-matching conditions. A prototype of the proposed antenna is designed, fabricated, and measured. Acceptable agreement between the measurement and simulation results is achieved. Experimental results show that the proposed antenna has operating bandwidths of 1.99-3.04 GHz and 5.08-6.1 GHz with a return loss of less than -10 dB, covering the required bandwidths of the 2.4/5.2/5.8-GHz WLAN standards. This is a microstrip antenna for IEEE 802.11a/b wireless local area networks applications. Meanwhile, the two-dimensional (2D) radiation patterns and three-dimensional (3D) gain performance of the antenna are also observed and discussed.

In this paper, a CPW-fed dual-band monopole antenna with two branch strips for WLAN(Wireless Local Area Networks) applications was designed, fabricated and measured. The proposed antenna is based on a CPW-feeding structure, and composed of two branch strips and then designed and tuned the length of two branch lines to obtained required frequencies bands.
