The antenna is fed by a single RF port without any matching circuit and it operates in a DVBH channel and at GSM and UMTS frequency bands. Its dimension is of 0.15 lambda at the lower frequency band. The effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed antenna is assessed by means of both simulations and measurements. (c) 2009 IEEE. Personal use of this material is permitted.
