Abstract

Enhancing the operating bandwidth of antennas
is particularly challenging when the antenna is confined in a
very restricted volume, as is the case for mobile phones.
However, increasing the bandwidth provides higher data
rates to the users. Consequently, the carrier aggregation
technology has been standardized. This paper proposes an
antenna design that can address the bandwidth issue of
new radio frequency standards, while coping with carrier
aggregation requirements. Specifically, the paper presents a
dual-antenna system, where each antenna exhibits a dual resonance.
The low-bands of the radio frequency spectrum
can be efficiently covered.
