Abstract
The research on wireless communication demands technology-based efficient radio frequency devices. A printed monopole dual-band antenna is designed and presented. The presented antenna exhibits a promising response with improved bandwidth and gain. The antenna radiates from 3.49 GHz to 3.82 GHz and from 4.83 GHz to 5.08 GHz frequencies with 3.7 dBi and 5.26 dBi gain, having a bandwidth of 9.09% and 5.06%, respectively. The novelty in the developed antenna is that resonating elements have been engineered adequately without the use of the additional reactive component. The cost-effective FR 4 laminate is utilized as a substrate. This structure exhibits an efficiency of over 83% for both resonances. The numerically computed results through simulations and measured results are found to be in good correlation. The aforesaid response from the antenna makes it an appropriate candidate for laptop computer applications.
