    Abstract

    The influence of handset components needs to be analyzed in order to optimize the integration of the antenna into a handset device. Therefore, a multiband handset antenna combining a planar spiral-shaped monopole and a slotted ground plane is used to study the influence of different components over the antenna performance. The antenna features a suitable behavior to operate in several mobile communication standards such as GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS2100, LTE2100, LTE2300, WiFi, and Bluetooth. The effect of a display, a speaker, and a battery has been investigated and recommendation rules are proposed in order to facilitate the integration of those components over the slotted ground plane without degrading the multiband performance.
