  • Abstract
    An extended polarization-dependent generalized characteristic-mode theory for a radiating structure is given. We show how these modes can be computed and employed in the design of closely located multiple-input multiple-output multiantenna sets with low interantenna envelope correlation and good mean effective gain under realistic incoming power distribution scenarios found in mobile communications.
