An antenna system suitable for a mobile device is disclosed. The mobile device includes a display casing with a conductive region and a non-conductive region. The antenna system includes a driven element having an inverted-F antenna arranged in the non-conductive region of the display casing. The display casing is also provided with an electrostatic discharge (ESD) conductor as a countermeasure against ESD. The ESD conductor is connected to the conductive region of the casing. The ESD conductor causes static charges in the air to be discharged to the conductive region of the casing. The ESD conductor also produces harmonic resonance and exchanges electromagnetic energy with the driven element to improve the gain of the driven element.
