Ram Horn-Shaped Inspired Folded Compact Antenna for 4G LTE-A and WLAN Portable Mobile Applications
A compact dual-band ram horn-like folded antenna is presented in this work. The antenna is based on a ram horn-like folded strip, asymmetric microstrip feeding (AMF) technique, partial ground, and protruding stub at the ground plane. The dimension of the proposed antenna is 0.11 λg × 0.17 λg at 2.3 ...
