A triple-band antenna which can be used at GSM900, PCS1900 and Bluetooth(or Wi-Fi) frequency band is proposed. The proposed antenna is designed based upon switching between IFA(Inverted F Antenna) that has a resonant length of ${\lambda}/4$ and loop antenna that has a resonant length of ${\lambda}/2$. It can be applied to triple-band only by use of single printed pattern due to the switching characteristic. It is designed by use of the IFA for the application to the GSM900, while it is designed by use of the loop antenna for the application to the PCS1900 and by use of additional pattern of IFA for the application to the Bluetooth(or Wi-Fi) respectively. As a result, it has been observed that the proposed antenna satisfies the required return loss(${\leq}10dB$) and also has efficiency(${\geq}80%$) over the whole band. Moreover the proposed antenna has omni-directional radiation pattern which is suitable to apply to the mobile phone.

This paper proposes the design scheme of internal triple band antenna intended for using in GSM900, DCS1800, and PCS1900 bands. The suggested folding metal plates of the two branches are mounted on a dielectric coated ground plane for size miniaturization and durability. Return losses are overlapped when length of metal branches are controlled. This is important technique for wide band operation. For the suggested antenna geometry its return loss was calculated by HFSS 9 simulator, and was shown to be -10 [dB] less within the required band. Also, gain and radiation pattern of antenna were measured using far field measurement system in an anechoic chamber. The measured peak gain is more than 3.0 [dBi], and the average gain is over -1.0 [dBi] for the triple band, which is regarded as satisfactory for the internal antenna application. Also, the radiation pattern for two frequencies shows a similar shape each other within the required band.

In this paper, we proposed vertically structured radiator for increasing bandwidth and gain of mobile phone internal antenna. The proposed antenna has vertically structured radiator instead of planar structured radiator to improve the antenna characteristics for GSM850/900 and DCS1800/PCS1900 bands. The antenna improve bandwidth of low band with 28 % than planar structured radiator. and also, improve bandwidth of high band with 14 %, efficiency 31.80~86.36 %, average gain -4.956~-0.617 dBi on the GSM850/900 and DCS1800/PCS1900 bands. These results are good performance among the small antenna with vertically structured radiator for increasing bandwidth and gain.

In this paper, an internal integrated microstrop patch for PCS handset is designed. To increase the bandwidth of microstrip patch antenna, a configuration of stacked type using parasitic element is used. Furthermore, to reduce the size of microstirip patch antenna, the main radiator in the substrate is shorted to the ground plane using five shorting-posts while three parasitic elements on the superstrate are also shorted to the ground plane using two shorting-posts respectively. The antenna bandwidth and radiation characteristics are calculated by HFSS 7.0 software, and compared with the experimental results. Experimental results show that the return loss is less than -10dB over the band of 1766MHz to 1900 MHz(134MHz) and the size of the fabricated microstrip patch antenna are $23\times20\times6.35mm$.

The lumped element isolators with temperature compensation magnetic circuits were designed in this paper. Isolators for mobile repeater at each band of K-PCS, GSM1900, W-CDMA, WiBro were fabricated by using optimum parameters of EM simulation, Form the results of this study, first of all, insertion loss at K-PCS band was below 0.2 dB and return loss was over 25dB. The bandwidth in isolation 23dB was found 30 MHz. Secondly, the figures of both losses at GSM1900 were 0.25dB and 23dB, respectively. The measured bandwidth in isolation 30dB was 60MHz. Thirdly, the losses at W-CDMA band were 0.15dB and 25dB. The bandwidth in isolation 24.8dB was found 60Mhz. Finally, the figures of both losses at Wibro band were 0.25dB and 23dB, respectively. The measured bandwidth in isolation 22.1dB was 100Mhz. In addition, the results of measured IMD were shown from 76.4dBc to 80.1dBc.

최근 무선통신 분야의 급속한 성장은 양적인 성장에 이어 보다, 고품질의 서비스를 요구하게 되었다. 무선통신 환경에서는 전파강도의 부족으로 전파가 도달할 수 없는 음영지역이 발생하게 되는데 이러한 음영지역까지 통신이 가능하도록 하기위해 기지국으로부터 받은 신호를 재증폭하는 중계기를 사용한다. 이때 중계기의 수신단과 송신단 간의 격리도가 충분히 확보되지 않으면 발진이 일어나 서비스 품질을 떨어뜨리게 된다. 본 논문에서는 중계기에서 신호를 효율적으로 전송하기 위해 수신안테나와 송신안테나 사이의 격리도를 개선할 수 있는 방법으로 반사판의 사용과 홈(groove) 기법, 안테나의 편극을 이용하여 1900MHz PCS 대역에서 50dB 이상의 격리도를 확보할 수 있음을 보인다.

최근 경제 활동의 증가로 인하여 통신 서비스에 대한 이동성, 편의성, 및 개인에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 현재 세계각국에서는 이동통신 서비스인 셀룰라 이동통신과 개인 휴대 통신인 PCS(Personal Communication System)가 상용화되고 있다. 1900MHz 대역은 셀룰라 800 MHz에 비해 전파 특성상 전파환경에 따른 전파의 감쇄 및 회전손실 등으로 인한 전파 경로 손실이 증가 할 것으로 본다. 본 논문에서는 바다 해수면의 영향에 따른 800MHz대역과 1900MHz 대역에서 주파수에 따른 경로 손실 차를 실측 Data를 이용하여 비교하였으며 실측 Data를 이용하여 전파모델을 만들어 LGE에서 자체 개발한 전파 분석 시뮬레이션 툴로 Coverage 영역을 비교하였다.

Wideband terminal and base station is required to serve not only existing 1st and 2nd generation mobile communication systems but also 3rd generation systems. In this paper, we presents a feasibility study on single feed compact wideband antenna for wireless communication applications including GSM (890-960 MHz), GPS (1575 MHz), DCS (1710-1880 MHz), PCS (1880-1990 MHz), UMTS (1900-2200 MHz), ISM (2400-2480 MHz), IMT2000 and satellite DMB bands. The original antenna was designed for partial discharge detection sensor in high voltage diagnostic system. However, we modified the original prototype to achieve shifted down resonant frequency for wideband wireless communication applications. The experimental result shows good return loss characteristics and radiation patterns except for the total gain at each resonant frequency. The maximum measured gain was 2.45 dBi${\sim}$3.18 dBi at 1710 MHz${\sim}$1880 MHz.
