Abstract :
A dual-band MIMO antenna is designed for automotive-based LTE communication. Basically, a monopole antenna is modified to resonate at a 900-MHz LTE band and a 1.9-GHz area, and to occupy a small real estate. Due to the dual-band resonance and radiation as one physical body, when this antenna is extended to the MIMO structure, the overall volume is relatively small to fit the space under the navigation monitoring box of a car. The design shows the antenna gain over 1 dBi and the return loss below ™10 dB for the two LTE bands.
