In this article, a printed dipole antenna loaded with open complementary split ring resonators is proposed. The integration of these particles inside the dipole structure provides dual‐band behavior. Furthermore, a dipolar‐like radiation pattern is obtained at both working frequency bands. A prototype has been designed for operation in the L1‐GPS frequency (1.575 GHz) and the WiFi band of 2.4–2.48 GHz. The prototype has been fabricated and measured, achieving good results. The obtained results show the suitability of the proposed design for dual‐band wireless terminals. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
