Objectives: A novel T–shaped coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed antenna is designed for WLAN and WIMAX applications.
Methods/Statistical analysis: The proposed antenna is operating at a frequency of 5.85 GHz. The proposed antenna has been designed using a FR4 substrate and it is simulated using mentor graphics IE3D simulator version 14.0.
Findings: The proposed T- shape antenna was printed FR4 substrate with dielectric constant of 2.4 and thickness is 0.8 mm. It is useful in monitoring and controls the movement of objects and also helps in tracking of the goods in industries without the use of physical contact in a convenient way.
Application/Improvements: The antenna shows a maximum gain of 1 dBi at resonant frequency and it has shows lower return loss, broader bandwidth and better impedance matching.
