Abstract :
This paper presents a novel antenna array for MIMO enabled laptops that is designed to preserve channel capacity. The antenna-level performance of this array is compared with the performance of a simple microstrip patch antenna array. This comparison is made with both arrays fully integrated within a realistic laptop structure.
