Abstract: The multi-band antenna structure includes a first antenna having a band width about a middle frequency and a second antenna spaced and electrically isolated from the antenna. Ends of the second antenna are shorted to each other and the antenna floats electrically. The first and second antennas are planar and superimposed in parallel planes. At least two layers of dielectric material of a thickness is between the two antennas. A third layer of dielectric material of a third thickness is between the two antennas.

Abstract: A dipole antenna for a wireless communication device, which includes a first conductive element superimposed on a portion of and separated from a second conductive element by a first dielectric layer. A first conductive via connects the first and second conductive elements through the first dielectric layer. The second conductive element is generally U-shaped. The second conductive element includes a plurality of spaced conductive strips extending transverse from adjacent ends of the legs of the U-shape. Each strip is dimensioned for a different center frequency ?0. The first conductive element may be replaced by a coaxial feed directly to the second conductive element.
