Abstract: A dual frequency, compact microstrip patch antenna with enhanced bandwidth is presented in this paper. Microstrip antenna with bandwidth of 31% is also been designed for Wi-MAX application by defecting the ground plane The single layered antenna has been designed to resonate in dual frequencies for Wi-MAX and WLAN with enhanced bandwidth of more than 12%. Microstrip patch antenna with inset feed is simulated with the method of Moment based standard software.
Keywords: Microstrip antenna, dual-frequency, compact, broad band, Wi-MAX, WLAN.
