Abstract
A circularly polarized multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna is presented for global system for mobile (GSM) (710 MHz) and lower long term evolution (LTE) (900 MHz) frequency bands. The antenna consists of four ports with four impedance transformers on the bottom substrate and elliptical rings on the upper substrates. Impedance transformers include open stub and irregular microstrip lines in order to control impedance matching and resonant frequencies. Two upper substrates that contain orthogonal elliptical rings cause the circular polarization property of the proposed antenna. The results of measurement for the presented antenna show its performance with S-parameters of less than −10 dB in the frequency ranges of 699-750 MHz for GSM and 880-1115 MHz for lower LTE applications. Also, the gain and radiation efficiency are higher than 5dBi and 70%, respectively.
