We present a dual‐wideband monopole antenna for WLAN applications. The antenna is fed by a coplanar waveguide transmission line and consists of a concentric split‐ring structure as the radiating element. Measured results show that the proposed design exhibits an impedance bandwidth covering 2.40−2.68 GHz and 3.85−6.95 GHz. In addition, the antenna pattern is well‐behaved in both E‐ and H‐planes. Comparison of simulated and measured results of return losses, radiation patterns, and gains of the antenna are provided. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 55:2088–2092, 2013
