The antenna operates at 3.5 and 5.2 GHz; hence, serving WiMAX and WLAN applications. Dual resonances were attained by integrating a quarter-wavelength strip with a C-shaped half-wavelength loop strip. The proposed antenna footprint is 20 × 7.9 mm2. Based on the achieved outcomes and the antenna compactness, it can be highly nominated for use in 3.5/5 GHz wireless communications applications and wireless gadgets.en-USACS-fed antennaAsymmetric Coplanar StripCompact antennaDual-band antennaHook-shaped antennaWireless communicationsWLAN applicationsArticlehttps://doi.org/10.1080/03772063.2023.2248949
