Abstract
A compact multiband Inverted-F antenna () that has a compact form factor and is particularly suited for manufacturability and inclusion into small form-factor devices. The Inverted-F Antenna () includes a first arm () and a substantially parallel second arm () connected by a conductive bridge (). An RF feed that has an RF contact () and a ground contact () is attached to a middle portion of the second arm (). The Inverted-F antenna () is suitable for mounting on an external face of a non-conductive support (). The RF feed () extends through the non-conductive support to facilitate electrical connection to RF circuits (). The Inverted-F Antenna () has a three band RF characteristic (), with the upper two bands chosen to form a single, continuous RF band ().
