One Sixth Wavelength Printed Monopole Blade Antenna

A Printed Monopole, One Sixth Wavelength Blade Antenna using printing micro strip on substrate that reduces the cost & increases the ease & precision in manufacturing. In this paper, the process of combining conventional blade antenna that cut a desired piece of metal, & alternative the printed version is represented. Due to increase mechanical strength of parasitic element, it has substrate in common with main antenna. A sample of the proposed antenna has been designed & manufactured that measurement and simulation results are in good agreement with each other.
