A compact slot multiple-input multiple-output antenna (CSMA) for smartphones with metal housing is proposed in this paper. The antenna has a slot radiator shared between two input ports and a T-shaped defect-ground slot (DGS) for decoupling. A function for selecting the best dimensions of the DGS for optimum decoupling is derived using the transmission theory. The CSMA antenna is designed using simulation to operate in the 2.4-GHz wireless-area-network (WLAN) system and then fabricated for measurement. Measured results show that the antenna has an impedance bandwidth (IMBW) of 2.4-2.48 GHz, mutual coupling from -19 to -29 dB and envelopecorrelation coefficient (ECC) below 0.0867 within the IMBW. The antenna is very easy to fabricate and is a potential candidate for the MIMO smartphones antennas with metal housing.

A four-antennamultiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) system with the most compact radiators for small mobile terminals is presented in this letter. The MIMO antenna has four identical elements which are positioned in each corner of the PCB board. Each antenna element consists of an L-shaped radiator and two interdigital shorting stubs, producing the 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz wireless local area network bands with a small size of only 6.5 x 9 mm(2). Two different isolation structures are introduced simultaneously to mitigate mutual coupling between various elements. Consequently, mutual coupling less than -15 dB at both lower and upper bands is achieved, leading to an envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) of less than 0.25. A prototype of the antenna has been fabricated and verified. Being equipped with small size, embeddable structure, good radiation performance, high isolation, and low ECC, the proposed antenna is very suitable for mobile terminals in wireless communication system.

This letter presents a compact multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) ultrawideband (UWB) antenna, and this MIMO antenna consists of two coplanar waveguide -fed monopole antenna elements and an improved ground-plane. These two antenna elements are symmetrically arranged on a FR4 substrate with dimensions 33.8 x 29 x 0.8 mm(3). The improved ground-plane has several ground stubs and windows, and they are applied as decoupling structure to improve the isolation as well as impedance matching. Simulation and measurement are used to study the antenna performance, results show that the antenna has a wide impedance bandwidth of 2.2-10.6 GHz with |S-11|-9 dB, low mutual coupling of less than -12 dB and -17 dB over the range of 2.5-4.2 GHz and 5.6-10 GHz, respectively, and LTE 2500 and UWB operation bands can be covered successfully.

An extremely compact dual-band MIMO antenna for 4G USB dongle applications is proposed for operation in the long term evolution (LTE) band 13 (0.746-0.787 GHz) and the M-WiMAX band (2.5-2.69 GHz).The proposed multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) antenna consists of two identical elements, each of which is 15 x 13.25 mm(2). The minimum separation between the two elements is 0.5 mm (about 0.13% of the wavelength in free space at 0.765 GHz). Each antenna element of the proposed MIMO system is composed of a feeding strip, a spiral-like radiating strip, and an L-shaped parasitic strip. The radiating and L-shaped strips are short-circuited to the ground plane. The radiating and parasitic strips, which are capacitively coupled to the feeding strip, operate not only as radiators but also work as resonators to reduce the coupling between the two closely packed input ports. The proposed MIMO antenna has a measured port-to-port isolation performance of more than 13 dB over the frequency bands of interest. In addition, the ECCs are maintained below 0.3.

A multiband multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) antenna using polarization diversity for next generation mobile communication is proposed. The MIMO antenna consists of two dual-band (0.75 GHz/2.5 GHz) dipole antennas with a separation distance of 0.8 mm. One dipole is etched on the top of a two-layered dielectric substrate with a dimension of 80 x 80 mm(2) and the other is printed on the bottom side of the same substrate. They are located orthogonal to one another. Even though the two stacked dipoles are separated by only 0.8 mm, the port-to-port isolation is maintained at greater than 20 dB, and the envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) of the two antennas is always lower than 0.2 over the entire frequency band. To evaluate the performance of the proposed antenna, key performance parameters such as the total efficiency, ECC, mean effective gain (MEG), MEG ratio, and actual diversity gain are analyzed.

A dual-band multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) antenna using polarization diversity is proposed for a 4G mobile handset application. The proposed MIMO antenna consists of two printed dual-band PIFAs with a slotted strip. input port 1 of the first PIFA is orthogonally disposed with respect to input port 2 of the second PIFA. The orthogonal placement of the two feed points ensures that the dominant polarization of each of the PIFAs is opposite to each other, resulting in a good isolation performance. The proposed MIMO antenna has an isolation of similar to 17 dB at LTE band 13, and the envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) of the two antennas is always lower than 0.4 over all of LTE band 13. To evaluate the performance of the proposed antenna, key performance parameters such as the total efficiency, ECC, mean effective gain (MEG), MEG ratio, and actual diversity gain are analyzed.

A multipleantenna system for mobile handset application is proposed. The proposed multipleantenna system consists of planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) for mobile operation and a shorted monopole MIMO antenna with a decoupling network for WLAN operation. By adding a lambda/4 open stub to PIFA, an additional resonance at 2 GHz band was generated and consequently the impedance matching characteristic was improved. In order to improve the isolation characteristic between the PIFA and MIMO antenna elements, each element is placed at the corner of each edge of the system ground. In addition, decoupling network was added at the feeding line of a shorted monopole antenna element. The proposed WLAN MIMO antenna has the isolations of about 15 dB at 2 GHz and 5.8 GHz bands while that at 5.2 GHz band is over 18 dB. It is observed that the antenna can cover GSM/DCS/PCS/UMTS and 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN service, simultaneously.)

A compact MIMO antenna using a decoupling network for 4G USB dongle application is proposed. The proposed MIMO antenna consists of two parallel folded monopole antennas with the length of 100 mat and a decoupling network. To improve the isolation characteristic at the LTE band 13, a decoupling network was added between the two antennas placed close to each other. The decoupling network is simple and compact and consists of two sections of transmission line, a shunt reactive component and quarter-wavelength jointed shorting structure. The proposed MIMO antenna has the isolation less than -15 dB at the LTE band 13 and the ECC is lower than 0.4 over the whole LTE band. (C) 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this paper, a very fast and accurate technique based on Infinitesimal Dipole Model (IDM) is used to minimize the correlation between two small F antenna elements. In this technique, a set of infinitesimal dipoles is used to represent each antenna element. Then, by using this model, the optimal location and orientation of each element is found to achieve the minimum correlation between antennas. It is shown that this technique is very accurate and efficient in computing the correlation between antennas compared to previous works.
