  • Abstract
    This paper presents a dual-polarized switched beam antenna that is used for small base station in LTE environment at frequency 2.6 GHz. The proposed antenna has three layers with square patches and C-shaped slots in symmetrical arrangement. It is fed through two ports simultaneously using switched line phase shifter. The antenna array provides three-beam switching in both horizontal and vertical plane with polarization switching.
