Abstract

A wideband dual-polarized magneto-electric (ME) dipole antenna is proposed for 2G/3G/LTE/WiMAX applications. It also applies to 5G (3.3–3.6 GHz). The proposed antenna has Γ-shaped feeding strips to impart a wide impedance bandwidth for it special structure, and a rectangular box-shaped reflector to enhance its stability in radiation patterns and high gain over the operating frequencies. The simulated results show a common impedance bandwidth is 81.2% with standing-wave ratio (SWR) ≤ 1.5 from 1.58 to 3.74 GHz, port-to-port isolation is large than 25dB within the bandwidth. The simulated antenna gains vary from 8 to 10.7 dBi and from 8.2 to 10.6 dBi for port 1 and port 2, respectively. The antenna has nearly symmetrical radiation patterns with low back lobe radiation both in horizontal and vertical planes, and broadside radiation patterns with narrow beam can be also obtained.
