Abstract

A dual frequency band antenna includes a dielectric substrate having opposite first and second surfaces and a meandering conductive trace disposed on a surface of the dielectric substrate. The meandering conductive trace includes first and second meandering segments that are configured to electrically couple with each other such that the antenna resonates within two separate and distinct frequency bands. At least one of the first and second meandering segments has a portion with an increased width compared with the width of the conductive trace.
