Abstract
A new dual elliptical patch antenna is proposed for wideband wireless application. The proposed antenna achieved wideband using internal and external parasitic radiators. The microstrip transmission line fed antenna is consisted of two elliptical radiating patches with two external annular parasitic elements and a partial ground plane. The proposed antenna is printed on epoxy resin reinforced woven glass dielectric material. The antenna structure is planar, and its design is simple and easy to fabricate. Experimental result shows that the designed antenna has achieved an impedance bandwidth of 7.28 GHz (VSWR ≤ 2) from 5.72 GHz to 13.0 GHz. Moreover, the antenna shows good radiation efficiency with accacptable radiation patterns within the operating frequency band.
