In this paper we proposed a novel broadband printed monopole antenna for PCS/IMT-2000/WLAN terminals by widening current flow To compensate narrow bandwidth characteristics which is one of disadvantages of general printed monopole antenna, we add the patch of diamond shape and induce the current in various directions for acquiring broadband characteristics. And frequency characteristics is optimized with Various design parameters. The bandwidth of the realized antenna is $1.66{\sim}3.04\;GHz$(58.72 %) below the return loss of -10 dB which contain the required band-width of PCS/IMT-2000/WLAN band.

In this paper, a dual-frequency printed slot antenna loaded with an open-ring conducting strip and capacitively fed by a coplanar waveguide(CPW) is designed. The designed antenna has a bandwidth of 240㎒(1690㎒-1930㎒) at PCS frequency band and of 160㎒(2380㎒-2540㎒) at WLAN frequency band. In both frequency ranges, pattern and gain requirements are satisfied. The commercial software, IE3D, was used to design slot antenna. The predicted characteristics along with measured data are presented for verification purpose.

In this study, we developed a co-located and space-shared multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna module with a modular design and high integration level. The proposed antenna pair includes a half-wavelength loop antenna and a dipole-type antenna printed on the front and back sides of a compact modular board. Owing to their modal orthogonality, these two independent antenna elements are highly self-isolated and free of additional decoupling components, even though they are assembled at the same location and within the same space. Thus, the proposed antenna is attractive in 5G MIMO systems. Furthermore, the proposed co-located and space-shared MIMO antenna module was employed in a 5G smartphone to verify their radiation and diversity performances. A 12 × 12 MIMO antenna system was simulated and fabricated using the proposed module. Based on the results, the proposed module can be employed in large-scale MIMO antenna systems for current and future terminal devices owing to its high integration, compactness, simple implementation, and inherent isolation.

An internal antenna which has 1 cc volume was implemented on the FPCB(Flexible Printed Circuit Board) for the mobile phone. We increased antenna gain and efficiency by the applying of current direction concept on the antenna pattern for this small antenna. Short antenna length for the GSM band was compensated by the spiral inductor on the FPCB. For broadening bandwidth on GSM band, it's applied 2 spiral inductors. A conductor pattern for the DCS band was positioned perpendicular with the FPCB. Antenna was implemented on FPCB that is dielectric constant 4.4 and thickness 0.05 mm, and FPCB was attached on a carrier dimensioned $L{\times}W{\times}H=30{\times}7{\times}5\;mm$. Measurements showed that max. VSWR 2:1, efficiency 42.49~60.95 % and 47.95~73.21 %, average gain -3.72~-2.15 dBi and -3.19~-1.35 dBi on the GSM and DCS band, respectively. These results are good performances among the small antenna. And the radiation patterns are omnidirectional on the H-plane to both band.

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.

The pole antenna of vehicles for AM/FM radio broadcasting receptions has many probems, such as damageable mechanical system and noise etc. It is considered that noise is composed of the structural vibration noise and the air flow induced aerodynamic noise. Also we find out that the setting process of a printed on-glass automobile antenna has many difficulties. Recently, the above mentioned problems can be reduced by employing enhanced wiper antenna which utilizes the windshied wiper arm. The new system is a passive antenna. In this study, experiments for the characteristics of a wiper antenna by measuring the SWR, radiation pattern and received powe have been carried out. The experimental results show that the efficiency of the wiper antenna has better performance than any other antenna.
