A compact internal antenna on organic magnetic material for DVB-H application

This paper reports a compact internal monopole antenna on the novel organic magnetic material (OMM) for DVB-H applications (470-750 MHz) in a typical mobile handset with PWB dimension of 104 mm × 60 mm. With the usage of organic magnetic material, the total size of antenna is as small as 60 mm (L) × 5.5 mm (W) × 6 mm (H), resulting in 17% size reduction. Compared with antenna on conventional PC/ABS carrier, wider bandwidth and better efficiency can be achieved, which meet the requirement of DVB-H standard with enough margins. These properties make the design as a good candidate for mobile TV applications.
