Abstract
An antenna is provided with improved ruggedness and flexibility through the use of an embedded substrate with impedance matching circuitry disposed thereon, and a flexible electrical interconnect. The flexible electrical interconnect is coupled between the substrate and an antenna connector. The antenna comprises a first top flexible section having the flexible radiator element, a second stiff section comprising the impedance matching circuit for multi-band operation, and a third lower flexible section comprising the flexible electrical interconnect. Portable radio products incorporating the antenna can now provide multiband capability along with protection against drop.
