Compact Printed Coplanar Waveguide-Fed UWB/Bluetooth Integrated Antenna for Wireless Personal Area Network Communication
Abstract
A compact integrated Bluetooth and ultra-wideband (UWB) coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed antenna is presented and discussed. In this paper, the designed antenna has got specialty having wide coverage of Bluetooth and UWB frequency band both successfully giving optimum performance and above all small size. It has been designed very compact retaining all the standard parameters like VSWR, radiation pattern and gain to the acceptable level. The integrated dual-band antenna covering 2.4–2.484 GHz (Bluetooth) and 3.1–10.6 GHz (UWB) frequency band is designed using ANSOFT HFSS software by creating a quarter-wavelength C-shaped Bluetooth element near the radiating plane. The antenna has a small size (26 × 20 mm2), and shows acceptable gain flatness with stable omnidirectional radiation patterns across the integrated Bluetooth and UWB bands.
