The present invention provides a miniature, built-in multi-band antenna which is suitable for use in future compact mobile terminals. According to exemplary embodiments, a built-in patch antenna is provided which includes patch elements of different sizes and capable of being tuned to different frequency bands. On each patch element is formed a slot which divides the patch element into sub-parts. Each sub-part of a patch element is structured so as to be resonant at a frequency in the same frequency band to which the patch element is tuned. As a result, a high efficiency, broad band, multi-band, and surface mountable low profile antenna can be realized. |
