In this article, a compact quad band monopole antenna is demonstrated. Asymmetric coplanar strip feeding is applied in the design in order to compact the size. The proposed antenna fabricated on a FR4 substrate has an overall size of 30–30 mm 2 . By integrating an invert‐C slot and a modified invert‐F strip into an invert‐C patch, multiple resonant frequencies can be excited at 1.1, 2.35, 3.6, and 5.4 GHz individually for global positioning system, wireless local area network, Bluetooth/ISM, and Wi‐MAX applications. The measured result has shown a good agreement with the simulation results. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
