Abstract
This paper evaluates the performance of omnidirectional wrapped microstrip antennas (OWMA) for different locations along laptop screen top and side edges. The antenna input parameters and the radiation characteristics, for the ISM 2.4 GHz band, are presented as a function of the patch position. Numerical results show that the OWMA properties are almost independent of its location. This happens even when the antennas are very close to the laptop screen corners
