A wideband E-shaped microstrip patch antenna for wireless communications is presented. Zig-zag slots and perturbations of the E-shaped metallic patch are employed to excite two resonant modes and achieve a wide-band frequency behavior, featuring a fractional bandwidth of about 30%, and, at the same time, to meet the occupation volume requirements of mobile wireless local-area network enabled communication devices. A locally conformal finite-difference time-domain numerical procedure has been employed to analyze the radiating structure. Numerical results concerning the antenna parameters are in good agreement with experimental measurements.

Abstract
A wideband E-shaped microstrip patch antenna for wireless communications is presented. Zig-zag slots and perturbations of the E-shaped metallic patch are employed to excite two resonant modes and achieve a wide-band frequency behavior, featuring a fractional bandwidth of about 30%, and, at the same time, to meet the occupation volume requirements of mobile wireless local-area network enabled communication devices. A locally conformal finite-difference time-domain numerical procedure has been employed to analyze the radiating structure. Numerical results concerning the antenna parameters are in good agreement with experimental measurements.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
