• "Stacked Two Layer Dual-Band Antenna for Wireless Applications"
- Abstract
This paper proposes a Stacked Two Layer Rectangular Microstrip Antenna (RMSA) structure for Wireless applications in IEEE 802.11 a/ac/n. The proposed antenna consists of two rectangular patches fabricated on two different layers FR4 substrate, separated by an air gap. An Upper patch acts as radiating antenna which is parasitically coupled with lower patch. The Lower patch is fed with 50 ohms coaxial cable. The antenna is simulated using Method of Moments (MoM) based IE3D software. The proposed structure effectively covers two bands 4.98GHz-7.51GHz and 8.35 GHz – 9.09 GHz. The simulated VSWR is < 2 over the entire range in both the frequency bands. The radiation patterns show the suitability of the Antenna for wireless applications.
