Antena merupakan satu komponen penting dalam sistem komukasi wayarles. Antena mikrojalur boleh digunakan untuk aplikasi wayarles kerana ia mempunyai ciri–ciri seperti ringan, mudah dipasang dan dihasilkan dalam kuantiti yang banyak. Walaupun antenna mikrojalur mempunyai ciri–ciri tersebut yang menjadikannya sesuai untuk digunakan dalam aplikasi wayarles, namun ia mempunyai satu kekurangan yang agak serius, iaitu ciri lebar jalur yang sempit. Selalunya, antena mikrojalur mempunyai jalur di antara 1 – 3%. Tetapi, sekiranya kekurangan ini dapat diatasi, potensi antena mikrojalur boleh dimaksimumkan. Satu teknik alternatif untuk memperluaskan lebar jalur antena mikrojalur telah dikaji dan dicadangkan di sini. Aplikasi wayarles yang telah dipilih untuk dikaji ialah rangkaian kawasan tempatan tanpa wayar (WLAN) berasaskan kepada piawaian IEEE 802.11b. Di Malaysia, jalur WLAN adalah di antara 2.4 GHz hingga 2.48 GHz. Teknik yang dipilih untuk meluaskan lebar jalur ini ialah Antena Mikrojalur Dua Tampal Serupa Dengan Ruangan Udara (IDMA). Dengan menggunakan teknik ini, perluasan lebar jalur hingga lebih kurang 11% dapat dicapai. Jalur ini sememangnya dapat merangkumi jalur WLAN dengan frekuensi operasinya pada 2.45 GHz. Kata kunci: Rangkaian kawasan tempatan wayarles (WLAN); antena mikrojalur dua tampal serupa dengan ruangan udara (IDMA) Antenna is a vital component in wireless application systems. The microstrip antenna can be used for wireless applications as it has features such as light weight, easily mounted and it is easy to mass produce. Although there are many features that suits well for microstrip antenna to be deployed for wireless applications, there is a very serious limitation where it has a very narrow bandwidth. The typical bandwidth of the microstrip antennas is between 1 – 3%. If this limitation is eliminated, the microstrip antenna can be used to its full potential. An alternative bandwidth enhancement technique is studied and then proposed in order to broaden the bandwidth of the microstrip antenna. The wireless application that is selected to be studied is the Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) based on the IEEE 802.11b standard. In Malaysia, this WLAN band spans from 2.4 GHz to 2.48 GHz. The bandwidth enhancement technique which is selected is the Identical Dual–Patch Microstrip Antenna with Air–Gap (IDMA). By using this technique, a bandwidth enhancement of about 11% has been achieved. This bandwidth very well covers the required WLAN band with an operating frequency of 2.45 GHz. Key words: Wireless local area network (WLAN); identical dual patch microstrip antenna with air–gap (IDMA)

An application of defected ground structure (DGS) to reduce out-of-band harmonics has been presented. A compact, proximity feed fractal slotted microstrip antenna for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications has been designed. The proposed 3rd iteration reduces antenna size by 43% as compared to rectangular conventional antenna and by introducing H shape DGS, the size of an antenna is further reduced by 3%. The DGS introduces stop band characteristics and suppresses higher harmonics, which are out of the band generated by 1st, 2nd, and 3rd iterations. H shape DGS is etched below the 50 Ω feed line and transmission coefficient parameters (S21) are obtained by CST Microwave Studio software. The values of equivalent L and C model have been extracted using a trial version of the diplexer filter design software. The stop band characteristic of the equivalent LC model also has been simulated by the Advance Digital System software, which gives almost the same response as compared to the simulation of CST Microwave Studio V. 12. The proposed antenna operates from 2.4 GHz to 2.49 GHz, which covers WLAN band and has a gain of 4.46 dB at 2.45 GHz resonance frequency.

AbstractThe spectral congestion in existing Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) bands has led to the emergence of new ISM bands (Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII)) from 5.150 to 5.710 GHz. In this paper, a simple uniplanar, high gain, microstrip antenna is designed, fabricated, and tested for existing WLAN and new UNII standards. The proposed antenna provides dualband operation by joining two rectangular rings and cutting Defected Ground Structure in the Coplanar Wave Guide (CPW) feed. The experimental and simulation results show good return loss characteristics and stable radiation pattern over the desired frequency bands ranging from 2.20 to 2.65 GHz (WLAN band) at a lower frequency and from 5.0 to 5.45 GHz (UNII-1/UNII-2 bands). The measured peak gains are 5.5 and 4.9 dBi at 2.45 GHz (WLAN band) and 5.15 GHz (UNII band), respectively.

This paper presents a linear 1 × 2 “Ha ( )”–slot patch array microstrip antenna. The proposed design of an array microstrip antenna is intended for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) 2.4 GHz devices. From the previous research concerning the single patch “Ha ( )”–slot microstrip antenna, the gain that can be achieved is 5.77 dBi in simulation. This value is considered too small for an antenna to accommodate WLAN devices if compare to a Hertzian antenna. To enhance the gain of microstrip antenna, some methods can be considered using linear 1 × 2 patch array and T-Junction power divider circuit to have matching antenna impedance. The distances between two patches are one of the important steps to be considered in designing the patch array microstrip antenna. Thus, the minimum distance between the patch elements are calculated should be greater than λ/2 of the resonance frequency antenna. If the distance less than λ/2 electromagnetically coupled will occur, vice versa when it is to widen the dimension of the antenna will less efficient. Epoxy substrate Flame Resistant 4 (FR4) with dielectric constant 4.3 is used as the platform designed for the array antenna and it is analyzed using simulation software Computational Simulation Technology (CST) studio suite by which return loss, Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR), and gain are calculated. The simulation result showed that the designed antenna achieve return loss (S11) -25.363 dB with VSWR 1.1 at the frequency 2.4 GHz, and the gain obtained from simulation is 8.96 dBi, which is greater than 64.4 % if compared to the previous one. The proposed antenna design shows that increasing the number of patches in the array can technically improve the gain of a microstrip antenna, which can cover a wider area if applied to WLAN devices
