  • Abstract
    Mutual radiator coupling is known to impair the performance of modern multi-antenna communications concepts, such as diversity or MIMO. In recent years we have developed a comprehensive framework for assessing the quality of mutually coupled arrays in order to facilitate the development of highly compact designs for mobile consumer applications. The present paper summarises these ideas and attempts to convey additional insights into mutual coupling.
