Abstract: A multiband microwave antenna (1) is described, which antenna is intended particularly for surface mounting (SMD) on a printed circuit board (PCB) and has a substrate (10) having at least a first and a second metallization structure (11, 12), wherein the first metallization structure (11) has at least a metal area (111) forming a resonator area and the second metallization structure (12) has at least a resonant printed conductor structure (121), thus enabling the antenna to combine the advantageous properties of a PIFA (planar inverted F-antenna) with those of a PWA (printed wire antenna).

Abstract: The invention relates to an antenna comprising a dielectric substrate (1) and two resonant printed wiring structures, more particularly for use in high-frequency and microwave domain. On an end face of the structure (2) is arranged along a first edge and on an opposite, second edge of the same end face a second printed wiring structure (3). The arrangement of the printed wiring structures provides that resonances are developed which make the use of the proposed antennas in the four separate GPS, DCS/PCS, UMTS and Bluetooth applications possible.
