Dual Band Patch Antennas for Mobile Phone

Design simulation and analysis of dual band patch antennas: Mobile communications handsets with internal antennas become more popular every day. These integrated antennas must be designed to fit into a small volume, with an arbitrary shape.Indeed, the design of modern handsets is mostly fashion- oriented, and the antennas must be adapted to these requisites, without detriment to their matching or radiating performance. The present study focuses on how a change in some of the antenna geometric parameters, such as its height, may affect itsactual performance.Dualband antennas are useful in situations where the antenna is required to operate in two distinct frequencies which may be too far apart for a single antenna to perform efficiently at both frequencies.In this book different dual band patch antennas for mobile phones are designed, simulated (using the EMPIRE software and the performance of which is compared based on the standard performance measures.This book is meant for professionals who engaged in design, simulation and fabrication of mobile phone antennas, for researchers and postgraduate students regarding patch antennas and applications.
