Abstract

In this paper, a microstrip-fed triple-band monopole antenna with DGS (Defected Ground Structure) for WLAN/WiMAX applications was proposed. The proposed antenna is based on a microstrip-fed structure, and composed of two strip lines and DGS structure and then designed in order to get triple band characteristics. We carried out simulation about parameters. Adjusted the position and length of the two strips and three slits, we get the optimized parameters. The proposed antenna is fabricated on an FR-4 substrate of which the dielectric constant is 4.4, and its overall size is $34mm(W_1){\times}34mm(L_1){\times}1.6mm(t)$, and its proposed antenna size is $17.0mm(W_6){\times}30.75mm(L_3+L_4+L_9)$. From the fabricated and measured results, return loss of the proposed antenna satisfied return loss -10dB bandwidth 360 MHz (2.335~2.695 GHz), 645 MHz (3.37~4.015 GHz) and 1,770 MHz (5.14~6.91 GHz). And measured results of gain and radiation patterns characteristics displayed for operating bands.

본 논문에서는 DGS (Defected Ground Structure)를 적용한 WLAN/WiMAX 시스템에 적용 가능한 모노폴 안테나를 제안하였다. 제안된 안테나는 마이크로스트립 급전을 바탕으로 두 개의 선로와 DGS를 갖도록 구성하여 삼중대역 특성을 갖도록 설계하였다. 두 개의 선로 그리고 세 개의 슬릿의 위치 및 길이와 DGS 위치와 길이를 적절한 조정하여 본 논문에서 요구되는 특성을 얻기 위한 최적화 수치를 얻었다. 제안된 안테나는 $34mm(W_1){\times}34mm(L_1){\times}1.6mm(t)$의 비유전율 4.4인 FR-4 유전체 기판 위에 $17.0mm(W_6){\times}30.75mm(L_3+L_4+L_9)$의 크기로 제작되었다. 제작 및 측정결과로부터 -10 dB 임피던스 대역폭을 기준으로 360 MHz (2.335~2.695 GHz), 645 MHz (3.37~4.015 GHz) 그리고 1,770 MHz (5.14~6.91 GHz)의 대역폭을 얻었다. 또한 제안된 안테나는 요구되는 삼중대역에서 측정된 이득과 방사패턴의 얻었다.
