Abstract :
A planar antenna for the long term evolution (LTE) communication module is suggested and examined. A meander pattern is added to the planar antenna, and the return loss characteristic and the radiation patterns in the frequency band of 800MHz are improved. The high values of the absolute gains are obtained in the frequency bands, from 824MHz to 900MHz, from 1447.9MHz to 1879.9MHz, from 1920MHz to 2170MHz. The antenna is commercialized in April 2014.
