Abstract

It's introduced a BLA(Branch Loop Antenna) that is modified from conventional loop, and verified antenna performances for applying to mobile handset. Branch elements are added to a rectangular loop, and low resonance is obtained by the length of the branch line. When resonance frequency of a single loop is 2.5GHz, BLA had near 900 MHz under the same antenna size. Multiple resonances are established by the locations of branch connection and their lengths. By the implementation and measurement for the dual band BLA, it's showed 75MHz -10dB bandwidth and -3.03~-1.46dBi average gains with 49.73~71.39% efficiencies at GSM900 band, and 90MHz -6dB bandwidth and -8.14~-2.17dBi average gains with 15.34~60.62% efficiencies at DCS1900 band. And H-plane radiation patterns were omni-directional. These performances are good for the mobile handset antenna.

본 논문에서는 일반 루프안테나를 개조한 BLA(Branch Loop Antenna)를 소개하고, 휴대 단말기에 적용될 수 있음을 보인다. 브랜치 소자를 사각형 루프안테나에 추가하고, 길이를 조절하여 낮은 공진 주파수를 얻는다. 공진주파수 2.5GHz를 갖는 단일 루프의 경우, 같은 크기의 BLA로 공진을 900MHz대로 낮춘다. 다중 공진은 BLA의 접속위치와 길이로부터 얻는다. 2중 밴드 BLA에 대한 구현 및 측정으로부터, GSM900밴드에서 75MHz의 -10dB 밴드폭, 평균이득 -3.03~-1.46dBi 및 49.73~71.39% 효율을 얻었고, DCS1900밴드에서 90MHz의 -6dB 밴드폭, 평균이득 -8.14~-2.17dBi 및 15.34~60.62% 효율을 얻었다. 또한 H면 무지향 패턴 특성을 보였다. 이들 특성은 휴대 단말기 안테나로 적용될 수 있는 좋은 특성이다.
