Abstract :
A small PIFA applicable to mobile telephones is described. To minimize the volume of the antenna a tapered type patch with corrugation is employed. The antenna is designed using CST microwave studio and its characteristics are compared with a basic PIFA with similar volume. The obtained volume was less than 50% of a conventional 1/4 wavelength PIFA.
