Abstract:
1. A dual radiator monopole antenna comprising: an elongated low-band ground-coupled arm disposed on a first surface of a printed circuit board, the elongated low-band ground-coupled arm (i) having a first end that is electrically connected to and extending from a ground plane, and (ii) being structured to be spaced apart from the ground plane along a portion of the elongated low-band ground-coupled arm; an elongated high-band ground-coupled arm disposed on a second surface of the printed circuit board, the elongated high-band ground-coupled arm (i) having a first end that is electrically connected to and extending from the ground plane, and (ii) being structured to be spaced apart from the ground plane along a portion of the elongated high-band ground-coupled arm; a feed arm disposed on the first surface of the printed circuit board, the feed arm (i) being electrically disconnected from the ground plane, and (ii) being structured to have a portion that is substantially parallel to the portion of the elongated low-band ground-coupled arm; and a conductor that is connected to the feed arm and extends from a connection point.
