Abstract :
Modern personal communication handsets are required to operate at multiple frequency bands for location independent operation and enhanced functionality. This poses an important challenge for antenna designers to build multiband antennas within the limited allowable space. In this paper, a compact PIFA based internal antenna is proposed for GPS, DCS, PCS, UMTS, WiBro, ISM/Bluetooth and WLAN standards. Measured VSWR of the antenna is within the acceptable limit over all the frequency bands with reasonable radiation performance. Height of the antenna is 4.0 mm resulting in a total volume of 2.4 cm3 that makes it attractive for modern slim personal communication handsets.
