Abstract
In this paper, we report our investigation into single-feed dual-frequency planar inverted F antenna (PIFA) designs which make use of LC resonators (o r "RF traps"), We introduce three basic methods for incorporating the LC re sonator into the PIFA, including a variant of the meandering PIFA, Experime ntal results are provided and these show that dual-frequency operation at 9 00 and 1800 MHz can be achieved for all three designs.
