Norberto Barroca,Henrique M. Saraiva,Paulo T. Gouveia,Jorge Tavares,Luís M. Borges,Fernando J. Velez,Caroline Loss,Rita Salvado,Pedro Pinho,Ricardo Gonçalves,Nuno Borges Carvalho,Raul Chavez-Santiago,Ilangko Balasingham +12 more
TL;DR: A dual-band band printed antenna operating at GSM bands (900/1800) is proposed, with gains of the order 1.8-2.06 dBi and efficiency 77.6-84%.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
