Abstract

This article comes with a novel study on the design of a CPW-Fed multi bands planar antenna. This structure can be integrated easily with both passive and active elements and it is suitable to operate for GPS, UMTS and WiMAX bands. Its entire area is 70.4×45mm2 and it is printed on an FR-4 substrate and fed by a 50 Ohm coplanar line. Simulations show that the antenna has a good input impedance bandwidths for, S11<=-10 dB, covering the GPS, UMTS and WiMAX bands. The electrical performances of the antenna are investigated numerically by using Momentum integrated in ADS and CST Microwave Studio. A good agreement between simulation and measurement results was achieved.
