A Multiband PIFA with a Slot on the Ground Plane for Wireless Applications
Keywords:
Handset antenna, multiband, planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA), slotAbstract
In this paper, we present a new configuration of
planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) for mobile communication
devices. Simulated results demonstrate that the new
configuration
covers
DCS/PCS/UMTS/WiBro/Bluetooth/S-DMB/WiMax/WLAN
frequency bands. Simulated return loss of the proposed antenna
is acceptable over all the mentioned frequency bands. Overall
size of the proposed design is 40 mm×21 mm×5 mm on a
100-mm-long chassis. In designing the PIFA, we propose a slot
on the ground plane for increasing bandwidth at about 2 GHz
that around of this frequency, there are many wireless
communication bands. The antenna is simply printed on an
inexpensive FR4 of 0.8-mm thickness and dielectric constant of
4.4. Structural dimensions of the proposed antenna are
optimized by using HFSS. Details of the multiband PIFA
characteristics are presented and studied.
