Abstract
This paper proposes serially arranged two parasitic elements above a fed di pole to obtain broad bandwidth in resonant frequency of a parasitic element . The above antenna can be used in triple-bands with one feed point. Its de sign method using FDTD is also presented. Next, application of the triple-b ands antenna is proposed for 3-sector base station antenna. Its characteris tics of return loss and radiation patterns are indicated. Calculated values are in good agreement with measured ones.
