Abstract :
A diversity antenna for a tri-band application is proposed and designed. The proposed diversity antenna consists of two wideband planar inverted-F antennas (PIFAs) and a suspended line between two PIFAs. The measured results show that the proposed antenna has a wide impedance bandwidth (37%) enough to serve a triple band (PCS, UMTS and WiMAX), a high radiation efficiency (> 50%), and a low correlation coefficient (<; 0.2).
