The proposed antenna design, analysis and characterization have been performed using the method of moments (MoM) technique. The new designed antenna has operating frequencies of 440MHz, 1194MHz, and 5272MHz with acceptable bandwidth, which has useful applications in communication systems. The radiation characteristics, VSWR, reflection coefficient, and input impedance of the proposed antenna are described and simulated using 4NEC2 software package. Also, the gain of this proposed antenna is calculated and described in the three planes: XZ-plane, YZ-plane, and XY-plane, where the antenna is placed in the YZ-plane.
