Abstract :
In this paper, we proposed a Folded type Rectangular Loop Antenna (FRLA) for one-seg. The measurement and simulation results indicated that the characteristics of the radiation patterns are similar to a rectangular loop antenna with full wavelength wire and resonates in the lower UHF band. The measured gain of the FRLA is -2.8dBi and the simulated gain is -2.2dBi. In the future, we will study configurations to achieve more wideband characteristics, and improvement of its radiation efficiency.
