Abstract
A bowtie monopole antenna is fabricated of a sheet metal radiating bodythat is triangular shaped, and having a longitudinal dimension and axis () and a width (). One corner of the radiating body is tapered to form a feed point (). The length dimension determines the antenna's lowest resonance frequency while the taper created by the width determines the highest point of resonance. For using the bowtie monopole antenna in a communication device, the radiating body () is folded or wrapped around towards itself To facilitate the folding or wrapping a mounting substrate () is used. The substrate may be provided with retaining features () to capture the antenna assembly within the communication device.
