3.2.4 Case 4: A Broadband Monopolar
Antenna for Indoor Coverage
In this section, a broadband monopolar antenna is presented. It has a
wide impedance bandwidth of 62% for a SWR < 1.5, ranging from 1.48
to 2.81 GHz. It possesses nearly omnidirectional radiation patterns over
the bandwidth. Moreover, it has a moderate peak gain of 6.1 dBi. Due
to these features, it is very suitable for the modern multiband indoor
mobile communication systems.
