Abstract :
With the proliferation of radio bands within the cellular spectrum, specifically Long Term Evolution (LTE), a tunable RF front end is becoming a necessity. This article presents the design and performance of tunable antenna configurations for mobile device antennas using the company´s barium strontium titanate (BST) thin film technology.
