The paper introduces mobile handset multi-band chip antenna to be used on meander line PIFA structure and parasite patch. The proposed antenna uses an FR-4 substrate. The top layer is consist of meander lines PIFA structure to implement GSM900 and is connected with each rad and meander line on the via-hole for maximize space efficiency. The middle layer is designed with the signal line and gap to implement a DCS and PCS bands, the bottom layer which is added to a parasite patch on the ground can be show an adjust of frequency and impedance character by the connection of the radiators of middle layer and coupling. The fabricated antenna with the dimension of $28{\times}6{\times}4\;mm^3$. The ground plane a dimension of $45{\times}90\;mm$, designed by a commercial software CST simulator. The experimental results show that the bandwidth for(VSWR<3) is 90($875{\sim}965$) MHz in GSM900 band operation and 380($1,670{\sim}2,050$) MHz in DCS, PCS band operation. The maximum gains of antenna are 0.25 dBi, 3.65 dBi and 3.3 dBi at resonance frequencies and it has omni-directional pattern practically.

Bowtie shaped meander slot antenna with harmonic suppression is designed and demonstrated experimentally. A substrate with height of 0.508 mm and relative permittivity of 2.5 is used, and the fundamental resonant frequency is 5.536 GHz. With thin conductor line in the antenna, harmonic suppression characteristic is obtained, and return losses at the 2nd and 3rd harmonic frequencies are -0.56 dB and -1.9 dB, respectively. Also, bowtie shape is applied to the antenna design for bandwidth enhancement, and the resulting bandwidth is 3.7 %, which is about three times wider than the reported meander slot antenna with harmonic suppression$\^$[1],[2]/.

In this paper, we compared and analyzed the antenna characteristics such as bandwidth, efficiency, and readable range in terms of the size and the number of turns of the multiple meander RFID tag antenna in the UHF band. The sizes of the each antenna are $20.0{\times}19.7$, $25.0{\times}24.8$ and $30.0{\times}29.7\;mm^2$. The bandwidths of the antennas for VSWR<5.8 are 857~963 MHz, 844~965 MHz, and 844~968 MHz which cover the worldwide UHF RFID bandwidth. The readable range of the antenna was greatly affected by the efficiency and gain of the antenna which depends on the size and the number of turns of the meander antenna.

A meander slot antenna with open-end fed by a microstrip line which can be used at 400 MHz ISM band is newly proposed. The main difference between the proposed slot antenna and the previous slot antenna is the introduction of the open-end to miniaturize the previous meander slot antenna in the space restricted within narrow limit. In order to check the validity of the proposed antenna, the resonant frequency and radiation pattern of the proposed antenna have been simulated and examined. Good agreements between simulated results and measured results have been observed.

In this paper, a integrated structure of a two-element microstrip patch antenna with two feeds for GPS/PCS dual-band operation is proposed. The radiating element for PCS operation is a novel broad band low-profile cylindrical monopole top-loaded with a shorted meander patch, which gives linearly polarized conical radiation pattern and size reduction of patch due to meander line. The radiating element for GPS operation is a novel square-ring microstrip patch with truncated corners and slits. which provide circularly polarized broadside radiation patterns and size reduction due to slots. using dielectric substrate in GPS antenna of proposed antenna provide to improve isolation between two feeds and reduce size of patch. The proposed antenna achieves the bandwidth and polarization requirements of GPS and PCS systems.

This paper presents the characteristics of a half-bowtie-shaped meander-type antenna for the 5-GHz band. Its design is based on a modified meander line width and bowtie shape with coaxial feeding. Its maximum measured impedance bandwidth (-10 dB below) is approximately 1.055 GHz (5.01-6.065 GHz) or 19.05%. Radiation patterns at different frequencies are presented. The measured gain was 2.26-8.86 dBi.

This paper proposed a novel chip type ceramic dielectric antenna by using the advanced meander line technique that the radiational metals are formed on the face of ceramic dielectric(8$\times$4$\times$1.5 mm, alumina) and both faces of substrate(1.0 mm thickness, FR-4). The performance of the antenna model has a good agreements between measurements and computed results. Resultly, it has a 10 dB return-loss bandwidth(2.4∼2.4835 GHz) and 1.7 dBi measured radiation gain for Bluetooth application. The proposed antenna model can overcome the limited radiation of the small-sized antenna.

We investigated the effects of substrate, metal-line, and surface material on the performance of radio frequency identification(RFID) tag antenna using a tag antenna with a meander line radiator and T-matching network. The results showed that readability of the tag antenna with a thin high-loss substrate could be increased so that it was similar to that of a low-loss substrate if the substrate was very thin. The readability of the tag antenna decreased significantly when the metal line was thinner than the skin depth. The readability of the tag also decreased drastically when the tag was attached to high-permittivity high-loss target objects.

In this paper, we present a circularly polarized (CP) composite cavity-backed crossed dipole antenna for global positioning system (GPS) applications. We produce the CP radiation by crossing two dipoles through a $90^{\circ}$ phase delay line of a vacant-quarter printed ring, which also has a broadband impedance matching characteristic. Two techniques, insertion of meander lines in the dipole arm and arrowhead-shaped trace at its end, are employed to reduce the sizes of the primary radiation element. The compact radiator is backed by a cavity reflector to achieve a wide CP radiation beamwidth. The proposed antenna exhibits a measured bandwidth of 1.450~1.656 GHz for a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) < 2 and 1.555~1.605 GHz for AR < 3-dB. At 1.575 GHz, the antenna has a gain of 7 dBic, a frontto-back ratio of 27 dB, AR of 1.18 dB, and 3-dB AR beamwidths of $130^{\circ}$ and $132^{\circ}$ in the x-z and y-z planes, respectively.
