A comparative study on simulated and experimental results of rectangular microstrip antenna with open stub loading technique has been presented for tuning at various frequency bands. The open stub of equal length is located at different places on the radiating patch for multiple resonating frequencies without affecting linearly polarized broadside radiation characteristics. The proposed antenna gives frequency ratio of about 1.41 with maximum gain of 5.66 dB. The antenna is simple in design and fabrication. It may find applications in WLAN, Wi-MAX and SAR
