Abstract :
The characteristics of proposed antenna such as return loss and radiation patterns from both sides of measurement and calculation were obtained. From these results, it is understood that proposed antenna has both functions of the PMA and the PSA with single-feed structure. Therefore, it seems that proposed antenna is an effective planar antenna in order to improve the receiving signal quality. In future, an experimental system to confirm and verify the improvement of the deterioration of receiving signal quality will be considered.
