A novel mobile terminal antenna covering the low LTE and GSM850/900 communication standards (i.e 700–960MHz) is proposed. The two‐port antenna is composed of two coupling elements manufactured on a plastic piece using a laser direct structuring technique. To obtain a high port‐to‐port isolation between the two feeds, a neutralisation technique is applied. Simulated reflection coefficients and total efficiencies are compared to the measured data showing good agreement and competitive performance.
