  • Patent number: 7825863
    Abstract: An antenna, including a planar dielectric substrate and a conductive ground plane formed on the substrate. A conductive monopole is formed on the substrate and has an end point located in proximity to a feed region of the ground plane. A conductive coupling element is formed on the substrate and is coupled to the ground plane at a coupling region of the ground plane. The coupling element is folded around the monopole.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20100013732
    Abstract: An antenna, including a dielectric carrier having a bounding surface, and a conductive monopole resonant at a first frequency, the monopole having at least one conducting section mounted on the bounding surface. The antenna further includes a labyrinthine conductive coupling element mounted on the bounding surface so as to encompass the dielectric carrier. The coupling element is located with respect to the conductive monopole so as to transfer from the conductive monopole a second frequency lower than the first frequency.
