Abstract
Abstract: This paper presents the design of a horizontally polarized rectangular waveguide antenna
with longitudinal slotted arrays for 2.4 GHz WLAN applications. The designed antenna is an aluminium
rectangular tube with the dimensions of 99mm x 42mm x 1.2mm (L x W x T). All parameters of antenna
has been optimized in order to have a horizontally polarized waveguide antenna at WLAN 2.4GHz band.
This antenna has maximum gain of 12.643 dB, and bandwidth of 175.3 MHz. Measured results of the
fabricated antennas agree rather well with simulated ones.
