Design dual-band microstrip monopole antenna for 3G mobile handsets
This paper concentrates on studying, designing and manufacturing a dual-band and high-bandwidth antenna applied for 3G mobile handsets. This antenna can work in GSM/UMTS bands by generating two resonant modes of 900 MHz and 1900 MHz frequencies. Antenna is printed on FR4 substrate with size of 58 mm × 80 mm, thickness of 1.6 mm and relative permittivity of 4.4. The proposed antenna is experimentally studied.
