In this paper, we have designed and fabricated a wide-band and high gain antenna which can integrate a standard of IEEE 802.1la$(5.15\sim5.25\;GHz,\;5.25\sim5.35\;GHz,\;5.725\sim5.825\;GHz)$. We inserted a parallel dual slot into a rectangular patch to have wide-band, and we offset an element of capacitance from the slot by using coaxial probe feeding method. We also designed a converter of $\lambda_g/4$ impedance with taper type line so that wide-band impedance can be matched easily. We finally designed structure with $2\times2$ array in order to improve the antenna gain, and the final fabricated antenna could have a good return loss(Return loss$\leq$-10 dB) and a high gain(over 13 dBi) at the range of $5.01\sim5.95\;GHz(B/W\doteqdot940\;MHz)$.

In this paper, a multiple U-shaped slot antenna on 5㎓ band is designed, fabricated, and measured. The prototype consists of a U-shaped slot and two Invert U-shaped slot. To obtain wide bandwidth, the foam layer is inserted between ground plane and substrate. After various parameters, length, width, position of U-shaped slot horizontal, interval length between two invert U-shaped slot, feeding position and airgap width, optimized, a multiple U-shaped slot antenna is fabricated and measured. The measured results of the antenna are compared with its simulated results. A 2:1 VSWR impedance bandwidth of 20.4% is achiedved by employing this technique. The gain is about 5.5㏈i. The experimental far-field patterns are stable across the pass band.

This paper is about the design of a small wide-band slot loop antenna, which consists of dual offset-fed and rectangular loop within the slot on a substrate. The proposed antenna is a novel structure generating a multi-resonances due to three geometrical resonance structures. The impedance matching of this antenna can be accomplished by changing the offset position of dual-fed at resonance frequencies. In this experiment, the slot of a fabricated antenna has a center frequency of 6.755㎓, 12.5mm${\times}$50mm in size and the rectangular loop has 10.5mm${\times}$27.5mm in size. The measured result is fractional bandwidth 63.21% with VSWR 2:1, which is agreed with the simulated result within 5% of error, and the maximum antenna gain is 7.42㏈i.

Microstrip antennas generally have a lot of advantages that are thin profile, lightweight, low cost, and conformability to a shaped surface application with integrated circuitry. In addition to military applications, they have become attractive candidates in a variety of commercial applications such as mobile satellite communications, the direct broadcast system (DBS), global positioning system (GPS), and remote sensing. Recently, many of the researches have been achieved for improving the impedance bandwidth of microstrip antennas. The basic form of the microstrip antenna, consisting of a conducting patch printed on a grounded substrate, has an impedance bandwidth of $1\~2\%$. For improvement of narrow bandwidth of microstrip patch, we were designed U-slot microstrip patch antenna in this paper. This antenna had wide bandwidth for all personal communication services (PCS) and IMT-2000. For the design of U-slot microstrip patch antenna using a finite difference time domain(FDTD) method. This numerical method could get the frequency property of U-slot patch antenna and the electromagnetic fields of slots.

An improved design of Ultra Wide Band(UWB) Bow-Tie antenna, which can control an enhanced wide stop-band, is presented. The mutually coupled slot-pair improves and controls the rejection band. The UWB antenna is composed of an electromagnetically coupled Bow-Tie patch and a parasitic ground patch, whose working frequency is extended to full UWB range in this work. By adding slot-pairs on the main patch and optimizing, they can give any requested wide rejection bands and sharp skirt characteristics, as is often required for UWB antennas and multi-band antennas. All the parameters are precisely calculated by an adequate optimization method. The Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) technique is appropriately adopted. The proposed design and method is proved to give and control the sharp-skirt wide stop-band to UWB Bow-Tie antennas.

In this paper, a design method for a compact stepped open slot antenna for an operation in the UWB band is studied. The proposed antenna is miniaturized by inserting L-shaped slots on the ground plane of the stepped open slot antenna through the creation of a resonance in the low frequency, and a strip director is appended to the antenna in order to increase the gain in the middle and high frequency regions. The effects of varying the length of the L-shaped slots, the distance between the director and the slot antenna, and the director length on input reflection coefficient and realized gain characteristics of the proposed antenna are analyzed. The optimized antenna with the size of $30mm{\times}30mm$ is fabricated on an FR4 substrate, and the experiment results show that the antenna has a frequency band of 3.02-11.04 GHz for a VSWR < 2, which assures the operation in the UWB band.

In this paper, a wideband slot antenna with corrugated structure antenna is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of a ground plane with corrugated slot and microstrip feed-line. Even with a limited dimension of $70{\times}70{\times}1.6mm$, the proposed antenna has wide bandwidth due to the longer current path formed by the corrugated slot structure. Measured bandwidth(10 dB return loss) and fractional bandwidth of the proposed antenna are 2,180 MHz(2.5~4.68 GHz) and 60.7 % at the center frequency of 3.59 GHz. The proposed antenna has an omni-directional radiation pattern and measured gains and average efficiency were 3.48~5.83 and dBi, 81.55 %, respectively.
