Abstract :
Dealing with the problem of Mutual Coupling (MC) has been a topic of interest since the early days of antenna array design. This letter presents a novel structure suppressing the mutual coupling between nearby curved disk monopoles antennas. Seven cases of antenna positioning were studied. An optimal case is solved; a very good agreement between the computed and measured results is obtained. Due to its physically compact size, multi-bandwidth and a degraded mutual coupling. The proposed structure array antenna is a good candidate for use with antenna relay.
