Abstract
In this letter, a planar invertedโF antenna with a slot on a ground is proposed to improve the antenna radiation efficiency at the CDMA band of 824โ894 MHz. In this configuration, the electric fields are more confined to the invertedโF section and the endโpoint of the ground. The measured results show that the radiation efficiencies of the proposed antenna are improved by up to 16.8% and that the radiation patterns are similar to those of the antenna without a slot. ยฉ 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract The performance of a slotโloop antenna with a very narrow outer conductor can be significantly improved by connecting to an extended ground plane whose length is a quarter wavelength. The antenna has a reduced size and wider impedance bandwidth. Simulations have been carried out in the
