Abstract :
In this paper, a novel metal-plate monopole antenna is presented for indoor digital television (DTV) signal coverage in the 468-880MHz band. The proposed antenna consists of two orthorhombic metal-plates with symmetrical bevels, a top-uploaded metal-plate and a ground plane. Simulation results show that the antenna achieves a bandwidth ranging from 468MHz to 880MHz which covers the DTV band (470-860MHZ) and shows stable radiation patterns in three coordinate planes.
