Abstract
A new type of two-dimensional composite right/left handed transmission line (2D CRLH TL) is proposed in this letter. Utilizing this structure, an antenna operating on GLONASS and WLAN based on dual zeroth-order resonance (ZOR) mode and first-order resonance (FOR) mode is designed and fabricated. By taking advantage of coaxially center feed and symmetric structure, nearly all omnidirectional radiations in XOY plane at three operating frequencies is obtained. Furthermore, the antenna gain has a high value of −1.27 dB in f1=1.60 GHz, −3.89 dB in f2=2.39 GHz and 0.67 dB in f3=5.12 GHz respectively.
