A printed loop antenna for mobile WLAN applications at 2.4GHz has been designed, fabricated and characterized. The structure is based on a composite right/left-handed (CRLH) transmission line that guarantees to achieve in-phase current even along a non small loop. Numerical simulations and measurements performed in anechoic chamber on fabricated prototypes confirm that the antenna exhibits good impedance matching and the radiation pattern is truly omnidirectional in the plane of the board, with high radiation efficiency and horizontal polarization of the radiated field.

Abstract

A printed loop antenna for mobile WLAN applications at 2.4GHz has been designed, fabricated and characterized. The structure is based on a composite right/left-handed (CRLH) transmission line that guarantees to achieve in-phase current even along a non small loop. Numerical simulations and measurements performed in anechoic chamber on fabricated prototypes confirm that the antenna exhibits good impedance matching and the radiation pattern is truly omnidirectional in the plane of the board, with high radiation efficiency and horizontal polarization of the radiated field.
