A wideband printed dipole antenna array is proposed for WLAN and Bluetooth applications. The proposed antenna array consists of two printed-strip dipoles, the arms of which are printed on opposite side of an electrically thin dielectric substrate and connected through a parallel strip-line is presented. The printed strip dipole antenna element is simulated by Ansoft HFSS 8.0. Several prototype antennas are designed and fabricated. Broadband antennas with bandwidth greater than 12% for VSWR ≤1.5 operating near 3.5GHz are obtained. This antenna is a good candidate for which operating in 2AGHz, 3.5GHz, or 5.8GHz. The important advantages of these antennas are simplicity in structure, low cost, and easy to manufacture and produce largely as printed circuits.
