Abstract
A CPW-fed inductively coupled bow-tie slot antenna is introduced. The bandwidth reduction for an inductively coupled straight-dipole slot is overcome by utilizing a bow-tie slot. Antennas operating at 2.45 and 5.5 GHz are proposed that have 10 dB return loss bandwidths of 12% and 17%, respectively. Prototype antenna elements and a two-element series-fed array were fabricated and tested to validate performance.Keywords
