Abstract :
This paper presents a small dual-frequency printed antenna. The antenna is based on spiral-like shorted patch configuration with an additional shorting pin to generate the second resonance. The antenna resonance is at 1.55 GHz and 2.5 GHz. The performance of the new antenna is studied with its return loss and far-field radiation patterns presented here
