A film-antenna capable of generating two wide resonant modes for covering the AMPS/GSM bands and the DCS/PCS/ UMTS bands for mobile phones is proposed. The antenna consists of two superimposed radiating arms which can support two resonant modes by themselves. The frequency range of a resonant mode generated by one of the arm is arranged to differ a little with the corresponding mode of the other, at the fundamental and higher-order modes. As a result, the bandwidths at both of the resonant modes are significantly enhanced. The antenna has a dimension of 5x15x40 mm 3 and shows fairly good omni-directional radiation patterns at all the operating bands.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
