Abstract
In this paper, a tetraband planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) for mobile handset applications is studied. The proposed structure covers the GSM (880–960 MHz), DCS (1710–1880 MHz), PCS (1880–1990 MHz), and UMTS (1920–2170 MHz) bands. The miniaturization in the antenna size is achieved by introducing a meandered line design. The antenna has compact size of 40 × 26 × 1.7 mm3. The radiation patterns in each operating bandwidth are almost the same as the omnidirectional characteristics. Moreover the proposed structure offers remarkable gain in the lower band compared to previous works.
The influences of various design parameters are investigated using CADFEKO, a Method of Moment (MoM) based solver.
