A low-profile, printed dipole antenna having two feed ports with two parasitic strips for tri-band operation in the 2.4 GHz (2400–2484 MHz), 5.2 GHz (5150–5350 MHz), and 5.8 GHz (5725– 5825 MHz) wireless local area network (WLAN) bands is presented. The strip dipole is coupled-fed via a chip capacitor connected to a dual-feed network and generates the 2.4 and 5.2 GHz bands with the aid of the tuning stubs in the feed network. The two parasitic strips are further employed to introduce additional resonance to cover the 5.8 GHz band. It was found that by loading the chip capacitor with proper values between the strip dipole and the dual-feed network, the port decoupling in both the 2.4 and 5.2 GHz bands can be improved, making a dual-feed and yet single antenna system possible. The design with constant strip width is simple in structure and occupies a compact size of 5 mm × 40 mm (about 0.04-λ × 0.32-λ at 2.4 GHz), which is well-suited to current narrow-bezel laptop computers. © 2020, Electromagnetics Academy.
