Abstract

In this paper, a novel omni-directional broadband biconical-structured antenna for mobile communication is studied. End shorted strip and sleeve structure are added to the feeding point for adjusting the input impedance and reducing the size. The working frequency band of the antenna is 696-2500 MHz, with a height of merely 0.28λmax and a diameter of 6 cm respectively. The VSWR is less than 1.7 in the whole band. The acceptable agreement of measured and simulated results shows that this kind of antenna has perfect input impedance and pattern properties.
