Design and Manufacture of LTE3G / WLAN/ LTE4G Tri-band Antenna System for Mobile Communication Applications

In this paper, we propose the method to improve the performance of the antenna system that contains three bands, such as Lte3G, WLAN and Lte4G. This antenna has an advantage that can cover the three different frequency bands 2.1?, 2.4? and 2.6? through one antenna design. The design and simulations are done using CST Microwave Studio 2014 program. The antenna is designed by using the FR-4 (lossy) substrate with the dielectric constant of er=4.3 and dielectric loss tangent 0.025. The substrate dimensions are the following; Thickness[h] is 1.6?, Length is 90?, and Width is 40?. The ground is designed by using the PEC material with h=0.035?. The patch is designed by using the copper with h=0.035?. In the near future, we will fabricate the antenna, which we have designed, and then apply this antenna to the mobile communication system. And we will test this mobile communication system for the diverse environments.
