Abstract

A dual band printed antenna that includes a metal substrate, an electrically isolated supporting element and a monopole antenna element. The metal substrate includes a slot. A side of the isolated supporting element is formed on the metal substrate. The monopole antenna element is formed on the other side of the isolated supporting element and corresponding to the position of the slot. The monopole antenna element includes a radiation part that includes a feed point and a ground part separated from the radiation part for a distance. The radiation part resonates with the slot to generate a radiation pattern of a first frequency band. The radiation part resonates itself to generate a radiation pattern of a second frequency band.
