Place the antennas far from sensitive analog systems or employ countermeasures to reduce EMC issues.
Take care of interaction between co-located RF systems since the LTE/3G/2G transmitted power may
interact or disturb the performance of companion systems.
Place the two LTE antennas providing low Envelope Correlation Coefficient (ECC) between the primary
(ANT1) and secondary (ANT2) antenna: the antenna 3D radiation patterns should have lobes in different
directions. The ECC between the primary and secondary antennas needs to be low enough to comply
with the radiated performance requirements specified by related certification schemes, as indicated in
Table 10.
Place the two LTE antennas providing enough high isolation (see Table 10) between the primary (ANT1)
and secondary (ANT2) antennas. The isolation depends on the distance between antennas (separation
of at least a quarter wavelength required for good isolation), antenna type (using antennas with different
polarization improves isolation), and the antenna 3D radiation patterns (uncorrelated patterns improve
isolation).
