In this paper, we propose the internal mobile antenna for TDMB and KPCS. The proposed antenna is made of different dielectric substrate and it has small size ($45{\times}8{\times}8\;mm$, about 2.8 cc) for mobile device. TDMB antenna is designed spiral structure that makes maximum current for each cell and KPCS antenna is PIFA that is usually used for internal antenna. In order to compensate length of resonance TDMB antenna has a large inductor above 100 nH. In this case, the inductor isolate KPCS signal at TDMB by cutting high frequency. Also the antenna has good isolation because TDMB radiator is parasitic element in KPCS band. We simulated the antenna by using CST microwave studio and measured performance of the antenna in anechoic chamber Proposed antenna has $-6{\sim}-14\;dBi$ gain for TDMB and $-3.5{\sim}-5\;dBi$ gain for KPCS.

In this paper, a folded helical monopole antenna for TDMB receiving and a trapezoidal fractal microstrip patch antenna for GPS were designed and fabricated for the vehicle shark antenna. To minimize null which is generating toward antenna axis direction and to receive both vertical polarization and horizontal polarization for TDMB antenna, we fold 90 degree helical monopole element. GPS antenna to get wide bandwidth and gain improvement was designed an air substrate trapezoidal microstrip patch antenna. Fabricated TDMB and GPS antenna were measured for S11 and radiation pattern, and compared with a commercialized antenna. TDMB antenna shows 3 dB higher antenna gain and receiving signal strength than the commercial one. GPS antenna shows the gain of 4.31 dBi at the resonant frequency, which is $3{\sim}5\;dB$ higher gain over whole operating band and 135MHz wide bandwidth at 2:1 VSWR than the conventional ceramic antenna.

In this paper, a vehicle antenna for AM, FM, TDMB, GPS systems was designed and implemented. AM antenna loaded into small space of shark shape was designed by ferrite turn style antenna. For the FM and TDMB antenna, folded monopole antenna which helical is folded was applied. GPS antenna for achieving characteristics both bandwidth and gain improvement was designed microstrip patch that has air substrate and fractal structure. Receiving signal strengths by the measurement were presented for the AM, FM and TDMB antenna. AM signal strength was -65.7dBm, this strength is almost as same conventional pole antenna as -63.4dBm. It can be replaced conventional pole or glass antenna by the studied antenna. Signal strengths for FM and TDMB were -55.66 and -43.50dBm at center frequency, they are 5~10dB higher than conventional antenna. Measurements of bandwidth and gain for the GPS antenna showed 135 MHz under VSWR 2 : 1 and 4.31dBi, gains over GPS band were 3~5dB higher than ceramic patch antenna.

A compact dipole antenna for the terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (TDMB) application is presented. The length of the antenna is about $0.06{\lambda}$ at the TDMB resonance frequency of 190 MHz. Miniaturization of the antenna is achieved by using meander structures and lumped elements. The proposed antenna has two resonance frequencies and covers the TDMB band from 174 MHz to 216 MHz in Korea. The antenna has good impedance bandwidth and radiation characteristics for the TDMB. The experimental results of the designed dipole antenna are presented and analyzed.

In this paper, an internal TDMB(Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) antenna for mobile phone is proposed. The overall dimension of designed antenna with substrate is 30 mm$\times$5 mm$\times$0.6 mm. The proposed antenna consists of a meander type radiator which is connected front- and back-plane of Kapton substrate by via hole and parasitic element for tuning the resonant frequency. And to compensate the electric length of desired frequency, passive inductor is used for matching element. Measured gain of the implemented antenna -17.6 dBi at 174 MHz, -13.01 dBi at 195 MHz, and -14.9 dBi at 216 MHz.
