A novel CPW-fed triple-band monopole antenna designed by embedding an S-shaped meander strip into a C-shaped strip is proposed for WLAN and WiMAX applications. The antenna with a very simple and compact structure is easy to be fabricated, and the prototype of the proposed antenna has been constructed and measured. The triple operating bands with 10-dB return-loss bandwidths of about 110MHz centered at 2.45GHz, 310MHz centered at 3.55GHz, and 39% ranging from 4.1 to 6.2GHz, covering the required bandwidths of 2.4/5.2/5.8GHz WLAN and 3.5/5.5GHz WiMAX standards, are obtained. In addition, good radiation performance and antenna gain across the three frequency ranges have been obtained.
