FULLY METALLIC DUAL-BAND 3-D WIRE ANTENNA FOR WI-FI AND WI-MAX APPLICATIONS

Band-Steering for Dual-Band Wi-Fi Access Points Optimizing Dual-Band Wi-Fi networks

MIMO Antenna for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Wi-MAX and UWB Applications

A Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna consisting of two 90◦ angularly separated semicircular monopoles with steps for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Wi-MAX and UWB applications is proposed. Initially, an array of two coplanar circular monopoles with element separation of 25 mm is investigated. In this configuration, mutual coupling is < −5 dB and < −10 dB over 2 GHz–3 GHz and 3GHz–10.6GHz, respect...

Wi-Fi & Wi-MAX: A Comparative Study

Usually broadband wireless access networks are considered to be enterprise level networks providing us with more capacity as well as coverage. We have seen that in remote inaccessible areas wired networks are not at all cost effective. Wireless networking has offered us an alternative solution for such problem of information access. They have definitely changed the way people communicate and sh...

Design of a Yagi-uda Antenna with Gain and Bandwidth Enhancement for Wi-fi and Wi-max Applications

There are various patch antennas used for Wi-Fi and Wi-MAX applications. But, the problems with them are low gain, low power handling capacity and hence, conventional yagi-uda antennas are used. Conventional yagi-uda antennas are used in applications where high gain and directionality are required. Generally, number of directors are added to increase gain of these antennas. But, here we present...

Fully 3D Printed 2.4 GHz Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Antenna

3D printing and printed electronics are combined to demonstrate the feasibility of printing electrically functional RF devices. A combined process is used to demonstrate the feasibility of fabricating a 2.4 GHz antenna in a fully-3D printed object. Both dielectric, which also serves as the structure, and conductors are printed. Full-wave models are generated using Ansoft HFSS. Real-world tests ...
