Abstract
An inherently non-resonant capacitive coupling element antenna for mobile handsets is presented. The compact antenna includes a simple coupling element with a novel multi-band matching circuit for simultaneous 698-960 and 1710-2690 MHz operation. Experimental results show that the antenna performs strongly in comparison to the current state-of-the-art in mobile terminal antennas, and that the non-resonant antenna is a competitive choice for mobile terminals.
