Abstract
In this paper, we present a multi-turn circular loop antenna for portable terrestrial DMB. In order to satisfy the two contradictory requirements of small antenna size and high receiving capability, the proposed antenna's diameter and turns are fixed to be 4 mm and 80 turns, respectively and its quality factor $\mathcal{Q}$ is set 1 in order to have high transfer function. The fabricated antenna length is 30 mm as small and its measured gain is -15 dBd. The antenna receiving power is verified by measurement very comparable with the receiving power of a commercial terrestrial DMB monopole antenna of length 190 mm.
