In this paper, the CPW-fed triple-band internal planar monopole antenna which simultaneously meets the three bands such as Cellular, PCS and Wibro is designed. The size of the radiation elements can be reduced to about $\lambda/4$ by designing the CPW-fed monopole antenna and then we can miniaturize the antenna size by meandering the radiation elements. In addition, we design the planar antenna for the slim-type mobile phone. We can obtain the desired antenna properties by controlling the length of each radiation elements. The measured return loss of the antenna is less than -7 dB at the desired bandwidth. And the measured radiation patterns are similar to that of the monopole antenna. The designed antenna has the gains -5.2 dBi. -2 dBi, -0.4 dBi at each resonant frequencies respectively.

In this paper, a design method for a planar dipole pair antenna for an operation in the frequency band of 470-806 MHz for terrestrial indoor digital TV (DTV) is studied. The proposed antenna is composed of two planar dipoles connected through conducting strips, and the antenna is fed by a microstrip line. By employing different lengths of dipoles, a broadband characteristics is obtained, and the antenna is size-reduced by bending both ends of the longer dipole. The effects of design parameters on the antenna performance are examined by simulation, and the parameters are adjusted for terrestrial DTV band use. A prototype of the antenna for indoor DTV reception is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a size of $240mm{\times}139.5mm$ and tested experimentally. The experiment results show that the frequency band for a VSWR < 2 ranges 458-864 MHz(61.4%), and it corresponds fairly well with the simulated band of 448-868 MHz(63.8%).

Using symplectic relation and reaction concept, we propose a planar near-field antenna measurement method. A generalized probe compensation equation is deduced to obtain the probe correction formulation. To verify our approach, a reflector antenna with $1{\times}2$ horn array is fabricated and measured in the near-field measurement facility. The near-field measurement results are compared with the physical optics (PO) simulation. The results of measurement and simulation agree very well near to the mainbeam.

A miniaturized planar digital video broadcasting terrestrial (DVB-T) antenna, which is composed of a patterned helical line, an open stub, and an impedance matching circuit on an FR4 (${\varepsilon}_r$=4.4) substrate for portable media player applications, is presented in this letter. The antenna has monopole-like, omni-directional radiation characteristics and a wide impedance bandwidth (VSWR<3) in the DVB-T band from 174 MHz to 230 MHz at the VHF band.

In this paper, a planar frequency reconfigurable antenna is proposed with variable capacitors. The proposed one is designed with a planar monopole, and varies resonant frequencies by variable capacitive loading of a varactor diode. The equivalent circuit and electromagnetic(EM) simulation are utilized for the analysis at the variable characteristic design of the antenna, and the same radiation performance. The implemented frequency variable monopole antenna has been verified by comparing prototypes with designed capacitors and ones with biased varactor diodes. The proposed antenna has presented the resonant frequency variations from 2.25 GHz to 2.42 GHz.

In this paper, a compact and broadband PIFA(Planar Inverted F Antenna) which has an additive short-circuit plate along the patch length was designed. For more compact PIFA short-circuit Plate along the patch width is reduced and an additive short-circuit plate along the patch length is used to broaden the bandwidth. The effect of an additive-short-circuit plate along the patch length was verified in single band PIFA and also verified in dual-band PIFA. The commercial software, IE3D, was used to design a PIFA and its performance was verified by comparing simulated results with measurement results.

Integration of RF front end module(FEM) into the antenna has been investigated in USPCS band (1.88GHz-1.99GHz). The FEM consists of input filter, power amplifier, coupler, power detector, bias switch and duplexer. The antenna was designed in planar inverted F antenna(PIFA) structure to implement it inside the handset. In order to avoid strong coupling between the antenna and FEM, a shielding ground layer was placed between them. The antenna size is 19mm by 10mm by 6mm under which FEM whose size is 8mm by 5mm by 1.5m locates. The antenna impedance was selected to match to FEM having better efficiency rather than gain since FEM has enough gain whose system spec is minimum of 20dB. The antenna patterns are shown with and without FEM.

The design of a compact folded patch antenna with moderately broad bandwidth is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna has radiation characteristics that are similar to the conventional monopole antenna. However, since this antenna is designed in a planar form, it has smaller size than that of a conventional monopole antenna. We have investigated the resonance frequency and bandwidth characteristics of the proposed antenna by changing the antenna design parameters. The proposed planar form of a monopole antenna in this paper has 1.17 GHz bandwidth with a matching circuit at the center frequency of 6.05 GHz.

This paper presents a wideband technique of impedance and axial-ratio bandwidth which uses the stacked planar array structure through optimum design of sub-polarization generating sections and parasitic patch. So, the effect of the dual-resonance characteristic can contribute to the bandwidth expansion of single fed planar array antenna using circular polarization which doesn\`t hire previous bandwidth expansion technique. The antenna can be used as a dual-band antenna by adjusting the resonance frequencies as well, and then the antenna is designed and fabricated in the frequency band of domestic satellite-TV service. This antenna has the performance of 9.7 % impedance bandwidth and 24 dBi of antenna gain. And it has also 2.8 % and 1.4 % of 3 dB Axial-ratio bandwidth at 11.4 GHz and 11.8 GHz respectively.

In this paper, a novel wideband crossed planar monopole antenna with the multiple resonance characteristics is proposed. The proposed monopole antenna can be designed by a wideband crossed planar monopole antenna with L-shaped slits. In order to generate multiple resonance characteristics on the proposed monopole antenna, the length of L-shaped slit and the number of L-shaped slits are determined at an interesting frequency. The proposed antenna having an omnidirectional radiation pattern and a high gain over the multiple resonance frequency bands, respectively, is suitable for a mobile antenna.
