Quad-Band Planar Inverted-F Antenna (Pifa) for Wireless Communication Systems

Abstract: Abstract-In this paper, a compact quad-band planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) for wireless communication systems is presented. The proposed PIFA consists of a radiating patch with a hookshaped slot and a modified ground plane with pair of square-ring and rotated I-shaped slots. The antenna is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with dielectric constant of 4.4. By cutting a hook-shaped slit at radiating patch, good dual-band property can be achieved which covers 3.5 GHz worldwide interoperability for microwave access… Show more

“…In this regard, to fulfill the base station requirements the planar inverted‐F antenna (PIFA) concepts are adopted in our study. The PIFA has inherent characteristics like its omnidirectional radiation pattern, its lightweight, and its low profile . Actually, there have been a several PIFA designs with different configurations to fulfill the multi‐band operation: Among the used configurations, we can state the branch line slits, the meandered shapes, the use of the slot technique as well as the use of parasitic elements .…”

“…Since decades, microstrip‐fed patch antenna design has been largely adopted in wireless communication services, and these phenomena have made the microstrip antenna become more popular due to its flexibility, light weight, low cost, compactness and easy to fabricate . Microstrip antennas can be utilized in a number of applications such as digital or mobile communication services, wireless broadband, wireless local area network (WLAN) applications, and so forth . WLAN is a microwave‐based technology that runs on 2.4 and 5 GHz bands .…”
