Abstract
A Planar Inverted-F Antenna for M2M applications is presented. The antenna is located on a rectangular ground plane and operates across both long term evolution frequency bands (690-960 MHz) and (1710-2690 MHz). The low cost antenna has omnidirectional characteristics. The efficiency is better than 80% in both bands and the average gain is more than -2.1 dBi across the whole frequency range. A parametric study of key geometrical parameters is reported.
