| Abstract: | A small‐sized (15 mm×30 mm) planar monopole MIMO antenna that offers high‐isolation performance is presented in this letter. The antenna is miniaturized using inductive coupling within a meander‐line radiator and capacitive coupling between a radiator and an isolator. High isolation is achieved by a T‐shaped stub attached to the ground plane between two radiators, which also contributes to the small size using a folded structure and the capacitive coupling with radiators. The proposed antenna operates for the WLAN band within 2.4 GHz to 2.483 GHz. The measured isolation (S21) is about –30 dB, and the envelope correlation coefficient is less than 0.1. |
