In this paper, a single plane wide band microstrip antenna for integrated circuit is designed and fabricated. A new configuration for a wide bandwidth is proposed. This antenna consists of two folded microstrip monopoles, which are fed by a coplanar waveguide (CPW). Therefore In this paper is folded terminal part of dual microstrip line for variable reactance value. As a result compared the proposed folded dual microstrip monopole antenna with established dual microstrip monopole antennas, the proposed antenna can widen bandwidth more then about over 1[GHz. The characteristics of the proposed antenna were analyzed by using an FDTD methods. The proposed antenna has $1.98{\sim}4.05GHz$ bandwidth for using ISM, Wibro and DMB band.

In this paper, a multi-band folded planar monopole internal antenna for mobile handset applications is proposed. The proposed antenna has multi-resonances, which is different from a conventional folded monopole antenna, and it provides a wide bandwidth at high frequency bands. The measured impedance bandwidth (VSWR < 3) is 180 MHz and 1880 MHz in lower and higher frequency bands, respectively. The proposed antenna can effectively cover most wireless communication bands including CDMA, GSM, GPS, DCS, PCS, and W-CDMA, WiBro and S-DMB.

In this paper, we propose a internal antenna for wirless HDMI dongle device using the folded monopole structure. The proposed antenna is for 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz. The antenna optimized for parameters length, gap, width, and radius of semicircular of monopole antenna using the 'F' structure. To confirm the characteristics of the antenna parameters, HFSS from ANSYS Inc. was used for the analysis. We used an FR4 dielectric substrate with a dielectric constant of 4.4. The HDMI dongle size of the proposed antenna is $45{\times}20{\times}1mm$, and the size of the antenna area is $5{\times}20mm$. There is a value of return loss less then -10dB in 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz, band and the maximum antenna gain is -4.13dBi. The result proved the possibility of the practical using 'F' structure that came frin comparing and analyzing the measured and simulated data of the antenna.

We designed and fabricated, in this paper, a quintuple band folded monopole antenna for the mobile phone handset that can be provided multiple mobile services. Antenna design was based on the compensation of series antenna capacitance with the expansion of physical antenna length by the proper folding structure. It's shown that this antenna satisfies quintuple service band as CDMA/GSM/DCS/USPCS/WCDMA, and is more cost competitive than conventional metal plate pressing method by applying on flexible PCB technology. Measured maximum gain on quintuple band were $-2.51{\sim}+1.82 dBi$, and radiation patterns were also shown nearly omnidirectional on all bands.

In this paper, we proposed a novel folded multi-strip monopole antenna whose height is reduced using folded strip structure. It has a broadband characteristic and its measured impedance bandwidth ratio is approximately 1.85 : 1, from 4.55 GHz to 8.4 GHz, for VSWR$\leq$2. Proposed antenna has vertically polarized omni-directional conical beam radiation pattern. It maintains about the same radiation pattern over entire bandwidth.

In this paper, we propose the planar folded monopole antenna with an inverted T-shape notch in ground plane. The proposed antenna is not only varied to a width of inner and outer patch lines to broaden bandwidth, but also it is inserted to a modified inverted T-shape notch with the same length of horizontal and vertical slit, difference of its width is about twice in the ground plane to broaden bandwidth. It is designed and simulated.

This paper presents a folded stripline-fed small broadband disk-loaded monopole antenna with vertical ground plane. The bandwidth of the proposed antenna can be enhanced by electromagnetic coupling between the shorted rectangular disk and the probe with folded strip line. The measured impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is $37.6\%$ for $VSWR\leq2$ with the center frequency at 2.313 GHz and has the physical dimensions of only $11mm\times11mm\times11mm$ which corresponds to the electrical length of $0.085\lambda_0\times0.085\lambda_0\times0.085\lambda_0$. For improving the radiation pattern characteristics, rectangular slits are inserted in the vertical ground plane. Rectangular slits affect the currents distribution on the ground plane, so that the antenna radiation in the direction of the ground plane is reduced more than 3 dBi. Gain of the antenna is approximately 2.6 dBi within the bandwidth.

This paper presents a printed, wideband folded monopole antenna for laptop and tablet computer applications. The proposed antenna is designed to cover bandwidth(2.3~10.6 GHz) of Bluetooth, WiMAX, and UWB system by using the printed folded monopole antenna having asymmetrical line width coupling with a parasitic inverted- L element. Also, wireless LAN band(5.15~5.85 GHz) which interferes with UWB system is rejected by inserting half-wavelength open stub in the folded monopole antenna. -10 dB bandwidth of the fabricated wideband antenna is 2.27~10.6 GHz (4.7:1) and -10 dB band-rejected bandwidth is measured as 700 MHz(5.15~5.85 GHz, 12.72 %). The gain and efficiency of the antenna except for the rejected band are higher than 3.93 dBi and 91.89 % and are measured as -2 dBi and 14.65 % at 5.5 GHz which is band-rejected frequency. The size of the antenna is suitable to install for small space of tablet and laptop computers as 12.75(1 ${\lambda}$/10)${\times}$12(1 ${\lambda}$/11) $mm^2$(${\lambda}$ is free space wavelength at 2.3 GHz). Therefore, we verified that the designed antenna is appropriate for wideband antenna of tablet and laptop PC applications.

We design and fabricate, in this parer, a triple band folded monopole antenna for the folder type mobile phone handset that can be served GSM/DCS/USPCS mobile phone system. Antenna structure is modified meander shape which is obtained both extension of antenna physical length for GSM band and same directional multi-currents flowing on the antenna conductor surface for DCS/USPCS band. This antenna has as good performances as high radiation resistance and gain increment, and would be applied to mobile phone handset that is not able to be performed by internal antenna. By measurement, fabricated antenna by the press process shows under VSWR 3:1 at closed folder state and 2:1 at opened folder state over whole GSM/DCS/USPCS band, and has maximum gain as -0.02 dBi for GSM, +0.2 dBi for DCS, +0.78 dBi for USPCS band with almost omnidirectional H-plane radiation pattern.
