Abstract

This work presents the systematic design and optimization of a compact quad-element MIMO antenna system in a roof cavity for the expected channel behavior at a 700 MHz LTE band. Beginning with a standard low-profile antenna element, the desired radiation pattern is synthesized by structural modification. The configuration for a quad-element design is then optimized. The results show that the proposed hidden solution even outperforms a non-hidden reference antenna of four quarterwave-monopoles in the cavity, making it attractive for real application.
