Abstract :
The advent of new, multistandard mobile phone devices is an important challenge for antenna designers, as they have to implement integrated antennas with multiband operation within a volume that is rapidly shrinking. In the paper, research results concerning the input return loss, radiation characteristics and efficiency of novel internal, planar, multiband patch antennas are presented.
