Abstract :
A novel compact six-band internal handset antenna for covering the GSM (890-960 MHz), GPS (1575 MHz), DCS (1710-1880 MHz), PCS (1880-1990 MHz), UMTS (1900-2200 MHz), and ISM (2400-2480 MHz) bands is presented. The proposed antenna consists of two layer patches and a folded stub and occupies a total volume of 36/spl times/17/spl times/8 mm/sup 3/. Details of the antenna as well as the measured results are presented.
