Abstract :
We review some of the challenges facing the designers of personal communication services (PCS) antennas and provide some examples that have been proposed to meet these challenges. Approaches to size reduction include the use of high dielectric constant materials, employing dielectric resonator, inverted-F or meander patch antennas.
