In this paper, an E-shaped coaxial feed microstrip patch antenna has been presented. The proposed antenna is designed to operate between 5.725 to 5.85 GHz frequency bands. The Ansot’s HFSS software has been used for designing the proposed antenna. The FR4 epoxy dielectric material of relative permittivity 4.4 and loss tangent of 0.0013 with the thickness of 1.6 mm is used as a substrate of the proposed antenna. High performance characteristics and good return loss values for 5.725-5.85 GHz frequency band have been obtained for the proposed antenna.

Keywords: E-shaped, Coaxial feed, HFSS, WLAN and WiMAX.
