Abstract
In this paper, we have proposed a compact multi-band antenna using F-shaped slot and a matching slot for GSM, PCS, UMTS, WiMAX, and WLAN frequency bands. We have used F-shaped slot and rectangular patch to produce GSM, PCS, UMTS, WiMAX, and WLAN bands. A matching slot is used to achieve a good matching. The obtained radiation patterns are similar to those of a conventional dipole antenna. Details of the proposed antenna design and the simulated and measured results are presented and discussed. The effect of the hand phantom on the matching and radiation pattern is also presented and discussed.
