Abstract

Recently with the rapid development of cellular communication, various types of antennas for mobile handsets have been extensively proposed and the trend of the mobile handsets is getting smaller and slimmer because of the consumer's needs and the multiplicity of functions. Conventional internal antennas for the mobile handset applications are generally in forms of monopole antennas [1]–[6] and planar inverted-F antennas (PIFAs) [7]–[12]. These monopole antennas and PIFAs generally use two separate resonant paths of different lengths operated at their quarter-wavelength modes to cover the mobile phone's operating bands. It is also promising to use the first two resonant modes of a single resonant path operated at its quarter- and half-wavelength modes. These conventional monopole antennas and PIFAs are usually excited by using microstrip feeding line inside the mobile phone.
