    Abstract

    A Wang-shaped suspended patch antenna has been designed for wireless commu- nication systems covering the 1.66 GHz{2.43 GHz frequency range. This frequency range covers the major standards in mobile communications such as PCS1900 (1.88 GHz{1.9 GHz), UMTS (1.92 GHz{2.17 GHz), and WiBro (2.3 GHz{2.39 GHz). The Wang-shaped patch is proposed in this paper for bandwidth broadening whilst maintaining symmetrical radiation patterns in both the E and H-plane. By using a simple low-cost feed network, Wang-shaped patch fed by dual L-probe yields a return loss bandwidth (10-dB) of 37.7% and max gain of 6.5 dBi at the mid-band frequencies. The radiation patterns and the cross-polarization of the antenna are also examined.
