Design of a Planar Inverted F-L Antenna (PIFLA) for Lower-band UWB Applications

Yes / This paper examines the case for an ultrawideband
planar inverted-F-L-antenna design intended
for use in the lower sub-band. The antenna construction is
based on the conventional inverted F, and inverted L as
its feed element, and parasitic element, respectively. The
optimized antenna size is 30×15×4mm3. The prototype
antenna has a good return loss of -10 dB, and a 66.6%
impedance bandwidth (2.8 GHz ¿ 5.6 GHz), the gain
varies between 3.1 dBi and 4.5 dBi.
