Design and Simulation of a Novel Wideband Dual-Polarized Monopole Antenna with Compact Configuration

A wideband dual-polarized monopole antenna with a compact configuration is presented in this work which is the potential for the application of broadband wireless communication. The proposed design is based on the concept of the asymmetric CPW-fed half-cut monopole antenna. The designed antenna has a 10 dB return loss bandwidth of 104.4%, a gain of >2.5 dBi, and a good port isolation of >20 dB from 4.4 GHz to 10.4 GHz in a compact size of 0.7 λ × 0.7 λ × 0.023 λ ( λ is the wavelength at 7 GHz).
