摘要
A simple multiband metamaterial-loaded monopole antenna suitable for wireless local area network (WLAN) and Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) applications is proposed in this letter. The rectangle monopole of the proposed antenna is originally designed to resonate at around 5.2 GHz. When the inverted-L slot is etched, the antenna produces a second resonance at around 4.1 GHz. Then, with the addition of the metamaterial reactive loading, the resonant frequency of the antenna will be shifted down, and a third resonance covering the 2.4-GHz band occurs. Consequently, the antenna can cover the 2.415.215.8-GHz WLAN and 2.513.5/5.5-GHz WiMAX bands with a very compact size of only 12.9 x 6.5 mm(2). Monopole-like radiation patterns and acceptable gains and efficiencies have been obtained. Details of the antenna design as well as the experimental results are presented and discussed.
