Journal ArticleDOI
Multiband Handset Antenna Combining a PIFA, Slots, and Ground Plane Modes
TL;DR: In this article, a multiband handset antenna combining a PIFA and multiple slots on a ground plane is presented, and it is shown by means of simulations that the slots on the ground plane have a double function: to tune ground plane resonance at low frequencies and to act as parasitic radiators at high frequencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advances in Antenna Technology for Wireless Handheld Devices
TL;DR: A description of the evolution of wireless handheld devices, regulations, challenges in today’s smartphones, and handset characterization is reviewed and recent advances in antenna technology for wireless handheld or portable devices are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiband handset antenna using slots on the ground plane: considerations to facilitate the integration of the feeding transmission line
TL;DR: Through this technique it is possible to obtain a multibandantenna while keeping the same antenna geometry, small volume.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the Human Head Interaction in Handset Antennas with Slotted Ground Planes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the performance of several handset antennas with different slotted ground planes in free space and also in the presence of the human head, and compared the measured bandwidth and efficiency in both environments (free space and human interaction).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Multiband handset antennas by means of groundplane modification
TL;DR: Results for antenna efficiency show that the proposed technique can be applied to design multi-band antennas for handset phones.
