A novel compact printed monopole antenna for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications is presented in this article.The proposed antenna consists of an L-shaped monopole radiator and an arc-shaped stub which can produce the required two bandwidths respectively. This antenna, fed by a 50-O microstrip line, has a small size of only 20 mm x 25 mm. A prototype of the dual-band antenna has been designed, fabricated and measured. Experimental results show that the presented antenna covers 2.22.6 GHz and 4.76.2 GHz with return loss less than -10 dB. Besides, the antenna has good radiation patterns in both E and H planes.
