Summary:
A planar inverted-F antenna type tunable antenna with Ushaped slot is proposed. Two Varactor diodes are integrated between the slot and bias feeding strip line for tuning the operating frequency. This antenna covers from 1.64GHz to 2.05 GHz refer to the dc bias voltage from 0V to 20V. The frequency tuning range is about 410 MHz bandwidth which covers several mobile communication bands of DCS(1710~1880MHz), PCS(1750~1870MHz) and PCS(USA)(1850~1990MHz). This antenna occupies a compact volume of 40 x 15 x 8mm3 . The simulation result is based on the Finite Integral Method.
