Abstract :
This paper introduces an ultra-miniature UHF antenna. The design combines different technologies to reduce the size:(meta-material inspired shape, use of a magneto-dielectric material as antenna support, use of an active component and a passive matching network for frequency tuning and impedance matching over the whole UHF band.) This antenna has been simulated and measured on nomad type terminal well suited for video applications.
