By folding a metallic strip onto a foam base, a low‐cost surface‐mount monopole antenna suitable for GSM/DCS dual‐band operation is presented. The antenna has a compact size of 33 × 7.5 × 7.5 mm 3 and requires no isolation distance to the system ground plane when surface‐mounted to the system circuit board of a communication device. Experimental results of a constructed prototype covering the operating bandwidths of the GSM (890–960 MHz) and DCS (1710–1880 MHz) systems are presented. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
