Multiband microwave antenna

摘要

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).
