Two novel antennas are presented for mobile devices to enable them to access both licensed shared access (LSA) bands (1452-1492 and 2300-2400 MHz) and all the long-term evolution (LTE) mid (1427-2690 MHz) and high (3400-3800 MHz) bands, together with the GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS, and 3.3 GHz WiMAX bands. These antennas do not require any passive or active lumped elements for input impedance matching. One of them is a dual-band antenna and the other is a wideband antenna. Both antennas have high efficiency in all the LSA bands, as well as the mid- and high-LTE bands, and nearly omnidirectional radiation patterns in the mid band. In the high band, the radiation patterns of the wideband antenna are less directional than those of the dual-band antenna. The wideband antenna was fabricated and tested and the measurements demonstrated that it had good wideband performance in a wide frequency range from 1.37 to 4 GHz, covering all the above-mentioned bands.
