Abstract

the paper proposes a planar monopole antenna with a dual element Multiple-Inputs-Multiple-Outputs (MIMO) system. The main focus of the study was to propose a highly compact antenna as low as 15.5mm x 18mm x 1.6mm with very high isolation and low return loss. Isolation higher than 31dB is achieved with the implementation of a Neutralization Line (NL) and an extended ground structure. The return loss is also calculated as high as -25dB. The system works in the operating bandwidth of 2.72 GHz – 2.93 GHz (covering 210 MHz frequency). Firstly, the proposed design is implemented without any decoupling structures. Then, a NL is introduced and analyzed. This is followed by an extended ground structure. Finally, the above structures are compared and analysis and results are drafted.
