Embedded DTV antenna for laptop application

A novel embedded DTV antenna for application in laptops has been proposed and studied. The proposed antenna can provide a wide operating bandwidth for DTV signal reception in the UHF band. In addition, the proposed antenna has a narrow width of 10 mm only, thereby making it very promising to be embedded within the spacing between the display and the casing of the laptop to operate as an embedded antenna. The proposed antenna also shows good radiation characteristics for frequencies across the operating band.
