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.
