Design of dual beam meander line antenna

Meander line antenna with parasitic element was investigated. It has been designed to operate at 2.4-GHz which are specified by IEEE 802.11b/g for WLAN. The antenna designed has been done for planar type. Microwave Studio SCT Microwave Office software is used for simulation designed process. The antenna is fabricated on a double-sided FR-4 printed circuit board using an etching technique. Then the design has been tested with the Advantest Network Analyzer. The comparison between simulation and measurement results for return loss and radiation patterns were presented.
