Monopole Antenna for WI-FI Applications

Sneha

In this Paper, a monopole patch CPW fed Wi-Fi antenna is designed with complete mathematical calculations and the results are simulated using HFSS software with an operating frequency of 2.4 GHz. The antenna has a low profile and is nearly is four times smaller in size than a conventional patch antenna. The designed antenna is compared with previous designed rectangular patch antenna [2] .Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology that allows computers and other devices to communicate over a wireless signal, it is also used to create a wireless LAN .Wi-Fi antenna are used at both 2.4GHz and 5 GHz. The Wi-Fi frequency is highest frequency on the mobile phone among all the application frequency. As the Microstrip patch antennas are small in size, light weight and integrated easily on device. The performance of the antenna is evaluated using ANSYS HFSS.
