Description
Summary:In the paper, four different planar multi-band antennas aredesigned, modeled, fabricated, and measured. Parameters of the antennasare in detail compared to demonstrate advantages and disadvantages ofdifferent solutions. Discussions are supported by results of the modaland full-wave analyses of antennas. The classical patch antenna is a basic building block of comparedantennas. The multi-band behavior is achieved by etching perturbationslots to the patch, which influence resonant current distributions. The antennas are designed for GSM bands (900 MHz, 1 800 MHz), andfor the Bluetooth band (2 400 MHz).
