Abstract

AbstractThis article presents a compact meander‐type antenna integrated with the module package for Bluetooth application. Theantenna consists of a lower patch in the bottom layer, an upper patch in the top layer, and a three via for connecting the two layers. The proposed antenna with module package, which is integrated to the module package through shorted‐circuiting, have been designed and successfully implemented. From experimental results, the measured impedance bandwidth, defied by S11 = −7.5 dB, can reach an operating bandwidth of 220 MHz (2.34–2.56 GHz). Also, 3D radiation patterns and peak and average gains within the operating band are measured and studied. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
