Abstract
Examples relating to an antenna for a communication device are described. In one example, the antenna may include a longitudinally extending base strip, and a radiating strip. The radiating strip extends longitudinally with respect to the base strip. The antenna may further include a coupling strip which provides a conducting path between the base strip and the radiating strip. The radiating strip is such that its length is greater than length of the base strip.

An antenna for a communication device, the antenna comprising:
- a longitudinally extending base strip;
- a radiating strip, extending longitudinally with respect to the base strip;
- and
- a coupling strip providing a conducting path between the base strip and the radiating strip,
- wherein length of the radiating strip is greater than length of the base strip,
- wherein the coupling strip is trapezoidal in shape.
A communication device comprising:
- a metallic chassis
- an antenna housed within the metallic chassis, wherein the antenna further comprises:
- a longitudinally extending base strip;
- a radiating strip, extending longitudinally with respect to the base strip, wherein the radiating strip is disposed at a specific distance from surface of the metallic chassis;
- and
- a plurality of coupling strips, wherein each of the coupling strips provides a conducting path between the base strip and the radiating strip, wherein length of radiating strip is greater than length of the base strip,
- wherein the specific distance between the radiating strip and the surface of the metallic chassis ranges from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm.
An antenna for a communication device, the antenna comprising:
- a longitudinally extending base strip;
- a radiating strip, extending longitudinally with respect to the base strip, wherein length of the radiating strip is greater than length of the base strip;
- and
- an intermediate portion positioned between the base strip and the radiating strip,
- wherein the intermediate portion is in contact with one of the radiating strip and base strip,
- wherein the intermediate portion is a triangular shape or a semi-circular shape with an edge of the intermediate portion positioned proximal to the radiating strip.
