Abstract

Ultra-Wideband (UWB) systems provide a means for short range high data rate wireless transmission between electronic devices. Portable devices and in particular, mobile handsets, have the potential to harness the unprecedented connectivity associated with UWB's high speed, low power data transfer. A ceramic chip FIFA antenna is proposed for integration into a mobile handset to provide UWB functionality across the band group 3 and 6 subgroups. Simulated results are observed and the design is optimised for use in the 6.3 - 9GHz band, whilst maintaining an overall antenna volume of less than 60mm3. A protoype of the design is measured and correlation between measured and simulation results is observed.
