A simple compact PIFA for wireless communication applications

A low cost, simple Broadband planar inverted F antenna (PIFA) is presented in this paper. The size of the proposed antenna is 40× 10 × 12 mm³ and is suitable to be embedded in a mobile phone as an internal antenna. It can be achieved a broad bandwidth at VSWR <2 about 630MHz (1820–2450 MHz). The simulation results are analyzed by using Method of moment (MoM) from IE3D Software. The proposed antenna was fabricated and measured. The advantage of the antenna is in its simple form. Moreover, the specific absorption rate (SAR) in the human head is investigated by CST Microwave Studio.
