  • Abstract
    Conformal shaped multi-band PIFAs (planar inverted-F antennas), with a single feed, are introduced. The first antenna, a semi-circular PIFA, operates in the iDEN (806-875 MHz) and GPS bands. The proposed semi-circular PIFA exhibited a peak gain of >1 dBi in most of the iDEN band, and 1 dBi in the GPS band. Two conformal shaped embedded antenna designs, one for AMPS/PCS dual band and the other for GSM/DCS/PCS tri-band, and their results are also reported in this paper.
