A compact inverted double-L antenna

A compact inverted double-L antenna (CDLA) fed by a microstrip line and operating at 2.45 GHz is presented in this paper. The linearly polarized CDLA can be constructed using conducting wires mounted on a small PCB board. This antenna maintains a simple structure, low profile, and compact size, which can be very useful for mobile communication systems such as Bluetooth and radio frequency identification (RFID) applications. Simulated and measured results are provided and good agreement between them is observed.
