Abstract

This paper discusses about a small-sized planar inverted F-antenna (PIFA) for tripple bands operation. The recommended antenna contains a stepped rectangular radiating component near to the edge of the PIFA besides having a ground plane with complete copper coating. The dimensions of this antenna are 26.7 × 16 × 1 mm3, and feeding technique used is microstrip line. Here, simulated S11 values, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and gain are fairly related to each other. The proposed antenna structure operates at 2.5 and 8.9 GHz frequency range below − 15 dB. The mentioned antenna structure is suitable for wearable medical applications.
