A compact rectangular microstrip antenna working in triple band for WLAN/WIMAX application is proposed. Thethree working frequencies of antenna are 2.4/3.2/3.5 GHz covering WLAN/WIMAX bands. IEEE WLAN protocol 802.11 b/gemploys 2.4 GHz and WIMAX 3.5 GHz. The antenna is simulated using HFSS 14.0 antenna design software. Wide bandcharacteristics in proposed design is due to various slots present in the design. The designed antenna achieves good impedancematching, return loss ( > -10dB ), good radiation pattern and consistent gain at all three operating band. The overalldimensions of the antenna are 29.44 mm*38.04 mm*1.6 mm and it is printed on FR4 substrate of dielectric constant 4.4.
