摘要
A very small antenna for full metal housing (FMH) tablet that can provide GPS and WLAN 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz operations is presented. This miniaturized antenna is formed by a loop strip of about 41 mm with its end terminal connected to the ground via an inductor, and its front section capacitively coupled to a feed strip. Except for the antenna self-resonant modes (loop modes); two cavity modes are also involved to realize multi-bands operation, which is a novel technique for antenna design in FMH devices. Here, the three loop modes are at 1.575 GHz, 5.2 GHz, 6 GHz, and the two cavity modes are at 2.45 GHz and 5.4 GHz. The measured efficiencies at 1.575, 2.45, and 5.5 GHz were 36%, 79%, and 78%, respectively. Because the loop strip is only 0.18 and in meander line shape at GPS frequency, the planar dimension of proposed antenna can be reduced to 10 x 8 mm(2). Therefore, the proposed antenna has very competitive size for applications in this operation environment.
