This letter describes a design of an internal quad-band antenna resonating at Cellular (824 894 MHz), DCS/PCS (1710 1880 MHz/1850 1990 MHz), and WiBro (Wireless Broadband Internet, 2300 2390 MHzs) system band by inserting the spiral slits corresponding to the resonant frequencies. In order to accomplish this goal, double-spiral structures are suggested and analyzed by using a commercially available software package based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) algorithm and basic equation for fundamental resonant frequency. In addition to that, the experimental results are compared with the predicted data obtained from the software package, CST MW Studio by considering the criterion of VSWR as 3:1. The proposed antenna and substrate are so small that they can be mounted and packaged in mobile phones. The measured radiation patterns are in good agreement with simulated results.
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.
