Abstract

A multiband antenna with a parasitic radiator for GSM900/DCS1900/WiMax wireless communication services is proposed. The proposed antenna is small in size (40mm Ã— 40mm Ã— 1.6mm) with simple structure. By adjusting the electromagnetic coupling between radiators, resonant frequencies and bandwidth of the antenna are controlled and the multiple-resonant operations are achieved. Parametric analysis has been conducted to investigate the effect of several important parameters of the antenna. The measured results of the prototype are discussed.
