Wireless Personal Communications volume 131, pages 2797–2810 (2023)Cite this article

Abstract

In this work, a dual band, reduced size, enhanced gain monopole antenna has been designed by using Frequency Selective Surface (FSS). The volume of the proposed monopole antenna is \(0.14{\lambda }_{0}\times 0.12{\lambda }_{0}\times 0.02{\lambda }_{0}\), where \({\lambda }_{0}\) is the free space wavelength at 3.5 GHz. Three L-shaped loops are used to enhance impedance matching. Size reduction and bandwidth are improved due to the L-shaped loops on the ground plane. FSS is incorporated under the monopole antenna as a band reject filter. Dual frequency bands of 3.45–3.55 GHz and 4.82–7 GHz with stable gain within the operating bands are achieved. The effect of the FSS on antenna results is studied. A maximum size reduction of 93% with 68.8% (2.18–7dBi) gain enhancement is achieved with respect to the reference antenna. The proposed antenna may be used in (5.2/5.8 GHz) WLAN, (3.5/5.5 GHz) WiMAX and fraction part of C-band satellite from 5.925 to 6.425 GHz as an uplink band.
