Abstract :
A multiband antenna with a parasitic radiator for GSM900/DCS1900/WiMax wireless communication services is proposed. The proposed antenna is small in size (40mm à 40mm à 1.6mm) with simple structure. By adjusting the electromagnetic coupling between radiators, resonant frequencies and bandwidth of the antenna are controlled and the multiple-resonant operations are achieved. Parametric analysis has been conducted to investigate the effect of several important parameters of the antenna. The measured results of the prototype are discussed.
