Abstract

In connection with the development of technology of mobile terminals (cell phones, smartphones, tablets, computers with wireless modems, etc.) in the standards of UMTS (3G) and LTE (4G) great attention of manufacturers of these devices is concentrating on the modernization and development of antenna systems of mobile stations (terminals). Currently, antenna systems of mobile stations is implementing on base of technology in form of complex configuration microstrip transmission lines, which ensure compliance with the requirements of modern wireless communication standards. Adaptive antenna arrays and MIMO antenna systems are implemented in mobile terminals for road and railway transport, which allow to achieve a sustainable reception of signals from the base stations. As you know, the difficult conditions for the propagation of radio waves in cellular mobile communication systems are associated with their absorption, multiple reflection and scattering. In these cases, the laws that are true for the line of sight conditions (LOS, Line of Sight) no longer work. The properties of antennas integrated into mobile terminals (mobile stations - MS (Mobile Station)) directly depend on the statistical characteristics of the environment and the location of the operating terminal relative to the spatial position of the user. Therefore, when designing MS antennas in UMTS and LTE mobile communication systems in the frequency ranges from 450 to 3700 MHz, it is important to consider all of the above factors.
