Abstract
An antenna system capable of operating among all LTE bands, and also capable of operation among all remote side cellular applications, such as GSM, AMPS, GPRS, CDMA, WCDMA, UMTS, and HSPA among others. The antenna system provides a low cost alternative to active-tunable antennas suggested in the prior art for the same multi-platform objective.
