Abstract

AbstractBy using the upper and lower ground planes of a folder‐type mobile phone, a novel internal shorted dipole antenna for digital television (DTV) signal reception in the 470–806‐MHz band is presented. The shorted dipole antenna further comprises an internal matching circuit, which includes a chip capacitor and two narrow metal strips, for achieving improved impedance matching over the DTV band of 470–806 MHz. The proposed DTV antenna was constructed and studied. The measured return loss for the operating frequencies over the DTV band is better than 2.5:1 VSWR. In addition, good radiation characteristics are also obtained. Design considerations of the proposed internal DTV antenna are described. A parametric study of the internal matching circuit on the impedance matching of the antenna is also presented. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
