A bent monopole antenna with shared segments is capable of tri-band communication. In an example embodiment, an antenna assembly includes a substrate, a first bent monopole, a second bent monopole, and a third bent monopole. The first, second, and third bent monopoles are disposed on the substrate. The first bent monopole includes a feedline segment and a first segment. The second bent monopole includes the feedline segment and the first segment. The third bent monopole includes the feedline segment and a second segment. The first, second, and third bent monopoles share the feedline segment, while the first and second bent monopoles also share the first segment. A T-junction is formed by the feedline segment, the first segment, and the second segment. In an example implementation, the first segment has a first width, and the second segment has a second width, with the first width being greater than the second width. |
