Abstract
In order to design small printed antenna restricted within narrow area of 30mm×8mm for the Zigbee module and improve its return loss, meander slot antenna with a floating conductor as the parastic element has been proposed. The resonant frequency and bandwidth(VSWR≤2) of the antenna designed and fabricated in the present study is about 2.44GHz and 113MHz respectively. The radiation pattern is almost similar to that of dipole antenna within the operation frequency range. Also the radiation efficiency and gain of the proposed antenna is more than 60% and 2.7dBi respectively. It has been observed that the characteristics the proposed antenna mentioned above satisfy the specification required of the Zigbee application. In order to validate the proposed antenna, some simulated and measured results are presented and compared.
