Antennas on Samsung Galaxy S

We have previously discussed the theory of Planar Inverted F Antennas (PIFA), now let us look at a practical example. Shown below is the rear view of a Samsung Galaxy S phone with six antennas. The description of these antennas is given below. 1. 2.6 GHz WiMAX Tx/Rx Antenna 2. 2.6 GHz WiMAX Antenna Rx Only (as a diversity antenna) 3. WiFi/Bluetooth Tx/Rx Antenna 4. Cell/PCS CDMA/EVDO Tx/Rx Antenna 5. Cell/PCS CDMA/EVDO Rx Only (as a diversity antenna) 6. GPS Antenna Rx Only The figure above shows the top conducting plane of the PIFAs. The bottom conducting plane (ground plane) is […]
