Abstract

A novel monopole internal antenna for mobile handsets is presented. The antenna, called the MB antenna, is a modified monopole whose radiating element is implemented in parallel proximity of a ground plane hence allowing for use as an internal antenna in handset applications. Simulation studies indicate that the proposed MB antenna has superior performance over PIFA antennas commonly used in modern handsets. Advantages include compact size, high gain and high efficiency. These characteristics make it very promising to use the proposed MB antenna in mobile handsets, including enhanced SAR reduction capabilities. The principle, design procedure, simulation results and comparison with PIFA also presented.
