Abstract :
A broadband tunable matching architecture for LTE application is proposed. The proposed matching architecture is independent of PIFA antenna pattern by connecting an inductor at antenna ground terminal. The matching circuit architecture of this paper use the less number of expensive tunable elements to achieve broadband antenna matching, so as to lower overall implement cost.
