Abstract :
To further reduce the coupling of a MIMO antenna containing a mushroom-like EBG structure, we propose a novel MIMO antenna by using a fractal mushroom-like EBG structure to realize a high isolation. The simulated band width of the antenna is 2100 to 2830 MHz (S11<;-10 dB), covering the bands of WLAN and WiMax. Compared to the antenna of using mushroom-like EBG structure, the antenna proposed in the paper has higher isolation and smaller dimension.
