Abstract

A simple human body phantom model is proposed and used to demonstrate that the radiation efficiency of an internal handset antenna operating at the FM band can be improved for a particular holding position up to 10 dB. To corroborate the numerical results, an experiment using a real human body has been performed showing very good agreement. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
