An ultra-wideband dual-polarized antenna covering multiple communication standards such as LTE700/GSM850/GSM900 is proposed in this paper. The antenna consists of two dipoles that are perpendicularly placed to each other. The two dipoles can generate +45°/−45° linear polarizations, respectively. Dual-loop structure is utilized as the arm of the dipole, while four parasitic patches with shorting walls are coupled to the dipoles to extend the operating bandwidth. The measured results show that the antenna has an impedance bandwidth of 101.4% (0.54 GHz–1.65 GHz) with a reflection coefficient less than −10 dB. The isolation between the two ports is larger than 22 dB, and the cross-polarization is less than −20 dB over the band. Good unidirectional radiation patterns are obtained.
