Abstract :
Many antenna types can be used for laptop integrated wireless applications. However, the most popular ones are the inverted-F (INF) and slot antennas or the variations of these two types due to their simple design, easy integration, low cost and overall performance. The goal of this paper is to highlight the characteristics of these two types of antennas.
