Abstract:A novel dual-band unidirectional antenna composed of an irregular shorted patch and planar dipole elements is presented and studied. This proposed antenna employs an L-shaped feeding strip for exciting dualband operations. For the lower frequency band, a V-slot is loaded on the planar dipole for acting as a capacitive loading for having wide impedance matching of the antenna. Then, two additional smaller planar dipoles are
placed and connected to the irregular short patch for achieving another wideband performance at the higher frequency band.
