The proposed antenna can be used for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. Antenna operates in dual-band as well as single-band mode depending on switching combination. The proposed antenna gives bandwidth of 12.5% and 6.7% for 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz, respectively, in dual-band mode while 15.5% for 2.4 GHz in single-band mode. The performance of the antenna is analysed with a ground-free substrate and traditional perfect electric conductor (PEC) ground plane. The same antenna is mounted on a dual-band slotted mushroom-type electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) surface which improves the return loss of the antenna in both bands by 25 dB w. r. t. the PEC-based dipole antenna. The proposed antenna can be used in WLAN applications. The simulations were carried out in SEMCAD and CST MWS.
