Development of compact dual-band monopole antenna for LTE application

Antenna plays an important role to radiate E fields and receive the E fields to induce the voltage at the input terminal of the receiver. Several antenna types are developed for wireless communication systems. Generally, it can be divided into two. One is elemental antenna and second one is radiated element antenna. Planar antenna is now a concern in many modern communication to reduce the design size. With a patch antenna, the device outlook will not have physical antenna but a build in antenna. In other words, a compact meander monopole antenna is design on FR4 substrate and moisturized for LTE communication system. This research project is about the miniaturized monopole antenna design, which has operating frequencies of 2.1 GHz and 3.5 for LTE mid-bands and high-bands communication systems. The proposed mender line radiation element is miniaturized the antenna size of 20×13×1.6 mm3. The designed monopole patch antenna achieves S11 parameters below -25 dB with gain around 2.2 dBi. The VSWR is 1.07 dB and the overall impedance simulation to optimize the results. After simulation, the antenna is fabricated and does the final testing in comparison with simulation results. The measurement observed very good agreement with the simulation outcomes.
