Abstract

Abstract This paper illustrates the design and development of the Series-fed Two Dipole Array antenna (STDA) for Wi-Fi applications. The proposed antenna consists of two dipole elements of different lengths, which are serially joined by the Coplanar Strip Line (CPS). The design incorporates an alternative feeding mechanism of coaxial/probe feeding technique with balun. The primary objective of this paper is to develop the high gain antenna with array configuration for Wi-Fi applications. The performance parameters of an antenna such as return loss, radiation pattern, gain and directivity are investigated for STDA array configurations. It operates at 2.4 GHz and produces a high gain of 21.6 dBi with reflector. The STDA antenna has been analyzed for different array configurations in the formation of 1×4, 1×8, 2×8 STDA array formation in order to improve the overall gain. The proposed antenna is fabricated an FR4 substrate with a dielectric constant of 4.4 and Loss tangent (tan δ) of 0.007 with the thickness of 1.6 mm. The size of an antenna is about 105 mm × 80 mm. The proposed antenna meets the requirements of an antenna which is operating at 2.4GHz with a bandwidth of 200 MHz; hence, it is found to be suitable for Wi-Fi applications.
