RF-M/NEMS Switch Integrated Planar Inverted F-Antenna (PIFA)

We propose a novel multifunctional reconfigurable antenna (MRA) design using micro/nanoelectromechanical system (M/NEMS) switches. This single MRA operates over five frequency bands of GSM900, GPS1575, GSM1800, PCS1900 and UMTS2100. The reconfigurability in operating frequency is achieved by the activation of M/NEMS switches which are integrated with the antenna architecture. Summary of Researc...

A Novel Low profile Planar Inverted-F Antenna (PIFA) for Mobile Handsets

A low profile planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) is proposed for mobile handset applications. The proposed antenna covers DCS-1800 & PCS-1900 bands. The antenna consists of a square planar element suspended above the FR4 dielectric substrate. The ground plane is on the bottom side of the substrate. Overall size of the antenna is 22*22*5.2 mm3 and is well suited for mobile handsets due to its low ...
