Abstract

In this paper, a novel rectangular ring monopole antenna for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) is demonstrated. The antenna is designed with a rectangle shaped ring having four different strips. The four strips along with the rectangular ring are used to create a wide impedance bandwidth (2.3-7 GHz) for VSWR ≤ 2, which covers the WLAN frequency ranges (2.4 - 2.483 GHz, 5.15 - 5.35 GHz and 5.725 - 5.825 GHz) and WiMAX band (2.5 - 2.69 GHz, 3.30 - 3.80 GHz and 5.25 - 5.85 GHz) applications. The antenna shows a sufficient wide bandwidth (4700 MHz) with good radiation patterns. The proposed antenna is suitable for WLAN/WiMax standards
