Abstract :
We present an electromagnetic simulation of a practical mobile terminal with a two-port MIMO antenna on left and right sides of the head. The computed far-field patterns include the effect of head and hand phantoms. We show that the far-field patterns on the two sides are strongly correlated if they are presented in the coordinate system of the phone, but they are completely uncorrelated in the coordinate system of the environment.
