Abstract :
Search for antennas to meet more complex requirements for new wireless technologies is a continuous industrial and academia activity. Two dual antennas in compact array for MIMO applications are presented in this paper. An air substrate patch antenna is used in combination with a quarter wavelength monopole, and with a small inverted L monopole to form two compact arrays of antennas. These all conductor arrays offer pattern diversity in a compact structure. Design procedure, simulation results and experimental data are presented for operation in the 2.4 GHz ISM band.
