A compact ( 20 × 20 × 1.6 mm 3 ) planar four band antenna operating at 1.35 (lower Global Navigation Satellite System [GNSS]), 2.57 (lower Worldwide Microwave Access [WiMAX]), 4.57 (C‐band) and for 5.13 GHz (Wireless Local Area Network [WLAN]) is presented. By utilizing slot method in the radiating patch and the ground plane the aforementioned operating bands are achieved. The antenna has a miniaturized dimension of 0.09λ 0 × 0.09λ 0 × 0.007λ 0 (where λ 0 is the free space wavelength at the lower frequency of 1.35 GHz, and exhibits good impedance match, acceptable radiation efficiency and stable radiation pattern at the targeted frequencies.
