Abstract
In this paper, a multiband LTE antenna satisfying LTE octa-band is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of a modified PIFA structure and a folded monopole which has the height of 4 mm. Each parts operates at lower and upper LTE band. Measured bandwidth(6 dB return loss) was 118 MHz(870~988 MHz) at the lower band and 1,107 MHz(1,650~2,757 MHz) at the upper band. The proposed antenna has a omni-directional radiation pattern and measured peak gains were 3.21 dBi at the lower band and 4.19 dBi at the upper band, respectively. The proposed antenna is expected to be utilized for future LTE-advanced system.
