The proposed antenna can be used for wireless communications both within the UHF (2.4–2.484 GHz) and SHF (5.2-5.8 GHz) wireless frequency bands, and presents a good out-of-band rejection, without the need of stopband filters. The antenna has been designed using a general-purpose 3-D computer-aided design software (CAD), CST Microwave Studio, and then realized. Measured results are in very good agreement with simulations.STAMPAenArticle10.1109/LAWP.2015.25079382-s2.0-84964878989https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7353140ING-INF/02 - CAMPI ELETTROMAGNETICIERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering
