Abstract

AbstractA surface‐mount loop antenna very suitable for application in the mobile devices such as the PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) phone for quad‐band operation is presented. The antenna comprises of a loop metal pattern for generating two wideband resonant modes at about 900 and 1800 MHz to cover the AMPS/GSM/DCS/PCS bands and a central coupling stub as the feed structure. Although quad‐band operation is obtained, the antenna occupies a small volume of 7 × 8 × 60 mm3 or about 3.4 cm3 only and is easy to be embedded inside the PDA phone as an internal antenna. Details of the proposed surface‐mount loop antenna are presented and discussed. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
