Abstract

In this paper a novel Multi-band planar antenna structure is presented for GSM 900, DCS 1800, 3G (UMTS 2000) and 4G (LTE Advanced) applications. The antenna is optimized and simulated by using CST Microwave studio, 3-dimentional full wave electromagnetic simulation software. This antenna structure has a partial ground that was optimized into simulation. After the achievement, we have tested and validated this multi-band antenna by using R&S VNA.
