A printed folded-monopole antenna for portable wireless applications is presented. The proposed design is based on the folded quarter-wave antennas, which have a conductor plate having two arms. A prototype antenna is fabricated according to the simulation result. The obtained antenna can perform in 2.4GHz band and be adopted for laptop applications.

We propose a folded monopole antenna with loads, and analyze the roles of design parameters which affect the return loss of the proposed antenna. VSWR < 3 bandwidth of the antenna is 30 ~ 2000 MHz, ranging from the HF/VHF/UHF bands. For operating travelling antenna, we connect six loads at the end of the antenna. The reflected wave is drastically reduced due to the six loads. For improved return loss properties, we use Klopfenstein tape that determine positions and values of six loads. The propose antenna has omni-directional radiational patterns like that of conventional monopole antennas. For wideband impedance transformation, we use the balun which operating frequency region is 10 ~ 1900 MHz. We expect the proposed antenna has important role for the wideband and multi-rold multi-functional communication systems.

In this paper, we propose 2.6 GHz single band dual polarization MIMO omni antenna for in-building applications. The proposed antenna operates at 2.6 GHz single LTE band, Up-link 2.52~2.54 GHz and Down-link 2.64~2.66 GHz. Horizontal and vertical polarizations of the antenna has been, respectively, constructed by the synthesis of four folded loop antennas and the folded monopole antenna. The height of the MIMO omni-directional antenna is minimized to be less than ${\lambda}/13.5$ from the ground. The measurement results show excellent MIMO omni antenna performance of 2.85 dBi vertical polarization gain, 2.29 dBi horizontal polarization gain, and 19.25 dB port isolation.

A wideband circularly polarized pinwheel-shaped planar monopole antenna fed by a wideband feeding network is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna is formed by four wideband planar monopole antenna elements with aquadruple feeding network in order to improve the performance of circular polarization. Additionally, the antenna, which is introduced here, has a high gain in the z axis direction because of its folded antenna structure. The attractive characteristics of the proposed antenna are the wide impedance bandwidth of 87.3 % (1 GHz to 2.55 GHz), the 3 dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth of 92.3 % (1.05 GHz to 2.85 GHz), and the maximum gain within the 3 dB AR bandwidth is about 8.24 dBic.

A rectangular loop antenna for S-band radar is proposed. The proposed loop antenna is the modified type of folded monopole antenna. The feeding line is coplanar stripline with $180^{\circ}$ phase difference for operating in odd mode. The proposed antenna showed return loss of -15.57dB at the center frequency and bandwidth of about 790MHz (> 25%) under the condition of VSWR < 2. The gains of single, 1x2, and 1x4 array loop antennas are 4.3, 7.0, and 10.2dBi, respectively.

In this paper, we propose the CPW antenna with three folded lines for miniaturization. This antenna is consisted of a meander-line on the middle position for LTE band and two folded lines. As widths of three lines are gradually changed to broaden bandwidth, antenna is designed.

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.

In this paper, we proposed a multiple meander strip monopole antenna. Using meander strip structure, we could broaden the impedance bandwidth and reduce the antenna height. The proposed antenna has broad bandwidth, from 2.9 ㎓ to 10.85 ㎓, for VSWR $\leq$ 2 and has vertically polarized omnidirectional conical beam radiation pattern, which is suitable for UWB wireless systems.

Recently, although demands for an internal antenna applicable to DVB-H handhold terminals are increased, there are many difficulties in designing the antenna due to the long wavelength of $430{\sim}640mm$ and the wide bandwidth of $470MHz{\sim}702MHz$. Since the proposed DVB-H band antenna can be analyzed as an SDA (Supported structure Defined Antenna), it is designed by combination of the folded monopole radiator which has a wideband characteristics and the wing-type element which can reduce the resonant frequency effectively. The DVB-H band antenna has VSWR of 4 and obtains a good gain from -5 to 2 dBi, when it is built-in the mobile handset.
