  • Abstract
    Using the theory of network characteristic modes, a planar inverted-F antenna and a microstrip patch antenna are systematically modified to obtain multiband performance at arbitrary frequencies. Each is loaded at multiple points with reactive loads consisting of multiple lumped resonators computed directly using equations derived from network characteristic mode theory.
