In this paper a new antenna design technique is introduced in order to achieve tri-band operation as well as antenna miniaturization. The technique consists of using two concentric first-iterative hexagonal rings connected to each other as a radiating patch fed with a Y-shaped microstrip line. The proposed antenna operates at three frequency bands to cover 2.4/5.8 GHz WLAN bands and 3.5/5.5 GHz WiMAX bands applications. The numerical analysis and simulation are carried out with CST MWS. The measured return losses of the proposed antenna show good performance and good agreement with the simulated ones. Consequently the proposed antenna with compact size of 9.7 mm x 17 mm x 1.63 mm is well suited for wireless applications.
