Abstract

A dual Planar Inverted-F-Antenna for M2M application is proposed. The antenna covers the lower long term evolution (LTE) band (690-960 MHz) and partially, the upper LTE band (1670-2067 MHz). The antenna is low cost with omnidirectional radiation characteristics. The measured total efficiency and gain are better than 58% and 0.8 dBi across the operational frequency range. A parametric study of key geometrical parameters is made.
