Abstract

This article describes a dual-band planar endfire antenna with improved front-to-back ratio (FTBR). The antenna is primarily composed of three sets of dipoles. By linking them with parallel double-sided matching lines, the three-dipole array enables dual-band operation. Moreover, the antenna structure is integrated with a parasitic strip along with a two-stage director, which can regulate the current phase distributions of the three dipoles, significantly widening the1|5 dB FTBR bandwidth. Consequently, the antenna with a low profile of 0.009 λ0 obtains overlapping bandwidths ((|S11 |< -10 dB and FTBR > 15 dB)) of 9.5% (3.2-3.52 GHz) and 35.6%(4.13-5.92 GHz) of the two bands, respectively. The proposed antenna has the potential to be applied to Wi-Max/Wi-Lan band wireless communication devices.
