Integrated internal PIFA for UMTS operation of clamshell mobile phones

novel design of at internal PIFA integrated with an RF-shielding metal case for application in a clamshell or fielder-tvpe mobile phone is presented. The integrated PIFA has a bent and tapered radiating arm in order to easily fit in the casing of the clamshell mobile phone as an internal antenna. The integrated PlEA can also provide a wide operating bandwidth fir UM7S (1920-2170 MHz) operation. In addition, for the clamshell mobile phone in either the talk or standby condition, only a small effect on the operating bandwidth of the integrated PIFA is obtained. The experimental results of the proposed design are presented

Slot Line Fed Dipole Antenna For Wide Band Applications

A slot line fed planar dipole antenna with a parasitic strip for wide band applications is presented. The presented antenna offers a 2:1 VSWR bandwidth from 1.66 to 2.71 GHz covering the DCS/ PCS/UMTS and IEEE 802.11b/g bands with a gain better than 6.5 dBi. The uniplanar design, simple feeding, and high gain make it a versatile antenna for wireless applications

Design of a Compact Multiband Microstrip Antenna

A compact microstrip multiband antenna on a modified ground plane which can operate over the bands starting from 900 MHz to 5.35 GHz which includes the GSM (880-960) GPS (1568-1592 MHz), DCS (1710-1880 MHz), and PCS (1850- 1990 MHz). UMTS (1920-2170 MHz), IEEE 802.11 b/g (2400- 2484) and WLAN IEEE 802.11a band (5.15-5.35) is reported in this paper. The overall dimension of the antenna is 33 x 33 mm2 including the top patch with a dimension 22 x 22 mm2. The experimental results of the antenna are presented in this paper. The results confirm that the antenna exhibits wide band characteristics and covers 7 bands of operation
