Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1014486A1] The present invention relates to a patch antenna comprising a ground element (3; 11, 12) being electrically conductive, a resonator element (2; 8, 9; 13, 14) being electrically conductive, and a solid dielectric element (4) located between the resonator element and the ground element, whereby the ground element (3; 11, 12) and the resonator element (2; 8, 9; 13, 14) are electrically connected at a first end of the resonator element so that a closed end is formed and not electrically connected at a second end of said resonator element so that an open end is formed. The solid dielectric element (4) is only provided in the region of the open end and not in the region of the closed end of the antenna, so that a lightweight antenna producable at low cost is provided. The patch antenna according to the present invention is particularly useful as internal antenna for GSM mobile phones. <IMAGE>
