Wideband antenna for mobile terminals based on the handset PCB resonance

Abstract:

The resonant behavior of a handset printed circuit board (PCB) is analyzed by means of the Theory of Characteristic Modes (TCM). The information obtained is utilized to design a wideband antenna suitable for mobile terminals. To feed this resonant structure, a planar square plate is used. This antenna exhibits an excellent wideband performance and omnidirectional radiation patterns. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
