This paper proposes a new type of a dual-band internal antenna for GPS/PCS handsets. The antenna has three monopoles in different lengths, and this structure is referred as a 3-fingers type antenna in this paper. The antenna with low-profile structure is designed to use internal space of handset maximally. The fabrication and the measurement are accomplished by attaching the 3-finger type antenna to the inside of a commercial handset. We obtain gain of 1.97 dBi$\~$0.66 dBi in the GPS band, and -0.92 dBi$\~$1.02 dBi in the PCS band and almost omni-directional patterns at all bands.

This paper presents design simulation, implementation, and measurement of a miniaturized GPS/K-PCS dual-band LTCC chip antenna for mobile communication handsets. The dimension of LTCC chip antenna is $9mm\times15mm\times1.2mm$. The meander type radiating patch for dual-band operation is realized by using via holes with 0.3mm height to connect upper and lower-layer antenna. The lower meander type antenna is to be tuned to the lower frequency (GPS) band. The upper meander antenna with via hole connection is to contribute the higher frequency (K-PCS) band. The resonant frequency and frequency ratio of the proposed antenna can be adjusted by changing the height of via-hole and effective path of meander radiating patch. The electrical characteristics of the meander chip antenna applied to a GPS/K-PCS are suitable for mobile communication application.

In this paper, the wideband microstrip patch antennas for the Personal communications Service (PCS : 1750∼1870 MHz) and International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 (IMT-2000 : 1920∼2170 MHz) dual band are studied. Experimental and simulation results on the dual band antenna are presented. Simulation results are in good agreement with measurements. The experimental and simulation results confirm the wideband characteristics of the antenna. The studied antenna satisfied the wideband characteristics that are required characteristics for above 420 MHz impedance bandwidth for the PCS and IMT-2000 dual band antenna. In this paper, through the designing of a dual band antenna, we have presented the availability for PCS ＆ IMT-2000 base station antenna. An impedance bandwidth of 33% (VSWR<1.5, 650 GHz) and a maximum gain of 7dB can be achieved. The radiation pattern is stable across the passband.

A broadband antenna using a main and a sub antenna for the mobile communication terminal such as mobile phone and ITS terminal is designed. Two antennas are based on the hybrid antenna that is operating both a monopole and a IFA(Inverted F Antenna). It's applied the transmission line to connect both antennas. Sub antenna located in small space of the terminal allows space usability for the terminal design. Antenna for the hexa-frequency band of LTE700, CDMA, GSM, DCS, PCS and WCDMA is designed and implemented on the bare PC board that is same size of the mobile phone. This antenna was measured 3 : 1 VSWR over the whole design band. And average gains and efficiencies were-3.78 ~ -2.62dBi and 41.9 ~ 54.73% for LTE700/CDMA/GSM frequency band, -3.75 ~ -1.84dBi and 42.19 ~ 65.46% for DCS/PCS/WCDMA frequency band.

In this paper, we designed a printed square loop antenna for operating of PCS and IMT2000 band. The proposed antenna has omni-directional radiation patterns with broad bandwidth, similar to the conventional antenna, to easy feed on composing single planar. We obtain an ideal impedance matching and increase bandwidth. An antenna bandwidth is about 150MHz(1.74∼l.89〔GHz〕) at 1$^{st}$ resonance frequency and 290MHz(1.95∼2.24GHz) at 2$^{nd}$ resonance frequency on VSWR(equation omitted)1.5, and then we can obtain not only 1.73∼l.87 〔GHz〕 PCS band but also 1.92∼2.17 (GHz) IMT2000 band. band.

미국 PCS 대역 실내 간이 중계기에 사용될 수 있는 소형 안테나를 개발 제작하였다. 이동통신용 PCS 주파수는 CDMA에 비해 2배 정도 높기 때문에 건물 등 실내에서 통신하기에는 감쇠가 심하다. 따라서 건물 밖 신호를 받아서 건물의 특정부분으로 중계해주는 시스템이 필요하게 된다. 이 연구에서는 벽걸이 혹은 사진액자 형태의 중계기에 사용될 수 있는 소형이면서도 대역특성이 넓은 패치 안테나를 제작하였다. A4 크기의 중계기에 적용되는 소형 패치 안테나를 2개 배열하여 측정한 결과 S11의 -10㏈ 대역폭은 1.7 - 2.1㎓로 400㎒ 의 광대역이고, 이득 6 - 8.5㏈i 및 -l8㏈의 F/B 비 특성을 보였다.

In this paper, a wide-band monopole antenna for use in PCS/WDCMA/Wivro/S-DMB(1.750${\sim}$2.655 GHz) band is presented. The presented antenna is a trapezoidal monopole antenna which has back-side patch and improves the bandwidth. To confirm the wide-band characteristics and radiation pattern of presented antenna, the experimental antenna is fabricated and its radiation characteristics are measured, compared with calculated results. It is shown that the designed antenna has VSWR less than 1.5, gain over 2 dBi in 1.73${\sim}$3.48 GHz. The measured results show good agreement with calculated results. From the result, we confirm that the designed antenna can be used indoor antenna for PCS/WCDMA/WiBro/S-DMB.

This paper presents an antenna for US-PCS band indoor repeaters with enhancement of isolation. In common repeaters require an enough isolation to reduce the interferences between transmitted and received signals. Thus, it is investigated to improve front-to-back ratio of IBD(Integrated Balun Dipole) antenna which has a good linear polarization with a cavity or multi-cavity by using polarization diversity and aperture matching method. From the simulated and measured results, the antenna realized by using polarization diversity and aperture matching method has a VSWR below 1.5, gain over 8 dBi and enhanced isolation of 15$\~$24 dB in US-PCS band.

In this paper, the triangular u-slot patch antenna for the PCS & IMT-2000 dual band are studied. The frequency bandwidth of a triangular u-slot patch antenna can be increased by L-strip fed structure. The impedance bandwidth(VSWR$\leq$2) of the fabricated single element is 590 MHz(30.18 %). Using the frequency bandwidth of PCS & IMT-2000, we confirm VSWR below 1.65, which is a good characteristic. Thus the wideband characteristic of the L-strip fed structure is confirmed experimentally.
