Title
Performance Analysis of a Built-In Planar Inverted Antenna for 800 MHz Band Portable Radio Units
Abstract
The pattern averaging gain (PAG) method to estimate the average gain of mobile antennas in a multipath propagation environment is proposed. By using this method and a wire-grid model, the radiation characteristics of the planar inverted F antenna (PIFA) mounted on a portable radio case is analyzed. In particular, the variation of the antenna gain with the radio case dimensions and inclination angle of the radio case during operation is clarified. Also, the effect on antenna patterns of the operator holding the portable radio is experimentally investigated. Based on this analysis, the antenna configuration with the PIFA element mounted on the lateral side of the radio case is found to be most suitable for portable radio units. In addition, an appropriate selection of the radio case dimensions is found to result in further improvements in the antenna bandwidth.
