4G LTE Antenna – Improve 4G Reception
Each 4G hardware has a built-in LTE antenna. However, the internal and rather small LTE antennas in the end devices do not always offer sufficient LTE reception. Especially if you live in the countryside far away from a 4G transmission tower, the surfing speeds with LTE are often below the promised transmission rates of the network operator. There are little tricks on how to improve the LTE reception.
So you should place your LTE router as close to the window and on a higher floor. An LTE speed test can help find the ideal location for the hardware by constantly checking the transmission rates. If you do not find an ideal place for your 4G router even after several speed checks, you may need an LTE antenna. And then you can improve the 4G reception for your 4G devices.
Can an LTE antenna noticeably improve 4G reception?
4G Antenna Types
If you are looking for a particularly space-saving LTE antenna on your house, you should opt for a panel or biquad antenna. Both types of outdoor antennas can significantly improve LTE reception. If you want to increase your LTE reception on the way, you should use an LTE clamp antenna. This 4G antenna can be easily attached to the laptop or in the vicinity, which usually gives you a better reception.
LTE Antenna Prices
The prices for an LTE antenna are depending on the type between 30 to 300 US dollars. When buying a 4G antenna, make sure it supports the right LTE frequencies. If you use 4G on land with a maximum of 50 Mbit/s, you need an outdoor antenna with 800 MHz. You should definitely opt for an LTE antenna, which is suitable for your own 4G router.
