Abstract
A single-feed rectangular-ring microstrip antenna is proposed for indoor co mmunication under the Bluetooth protocol. The dimensions of the antenna tog ether with the location of the feed point are optimised through field simul ations in order to cover the Bluetooth bandwidth and to avoid linear polari sation. The performance and the efficiency of the antenna are illustrated i n a real indoor environment.
