In this paper, a HediaFLO/GPS/Bluetooth antenna is designed for mobile handset with metallic chassis. It is consisted of two metal plates with 7.6 mm gap, a connection plate and source between two plates. It can be analyzed as U-slot antenna of $0.5\;{\lambda}$, array of shorted patches each application bands. Simulated and measured performance of the proposed antenna show that it has enough possibility to reuse metallic chassis itself as radiator without any additional space for antenna.

This paper developed the chassis part as micro-alloyed steel with high toughness. The performance of micro-alloy steels are superior to similar heat treated steels. The strengthening effects of vanadium make micro-alloyed steels particularly suited for high-strength-steel applications. The disadvantages are that ductility and toughness are not as good as quenched and tempered (Q&T) steels. Precipitation hardening increases strength but may contribute to brittleness. Toughness can be improved by reducing carbon content and titanium additions. dispersed titanium nitrides (TiN) formed by titanium additions effectively prevents grain coarsening. Grain refinement increases strength but also improves toughness. For the chassis parts using high toughness micro-alloy steel, it had proven superior to a plain steel forging by static strength test and endurance test.
