Abstract
In this paper, a compact tuneable dual-band slot antenna operating over the frequency range from 560 MHz to 1 GHz is presented and evaluated through a hardware-in-the-loop test-bed. The co-existence of high order modulation schemes is investigated in Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) and low Long-Term Evolution (LTE) bands. Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) results show that the proposed antenna can support two operating frequency bands simultaneously where each band can be tuned independently for carrier aggregation with negligible crosstalk.
