Abstract

this paper focuses on the designing of a MIMO system with an aim of obtaining high isolation between the antennas and thus maintaining a compact structure suitable for use in the limited space offered by mobile handsets. To achieve the desired results different arrangements have been studied upon. The paper brings out the effect on the isolation of the MIMO system with respect to different defects created in the ground structure and also the changes observed with respect to the shape of the antennas used in the MIMO system. Results have shown better isolation with the coupling co-efficient lower than -18 dB and -6 dB bandwidth of 40 MHz in the desired frequency range of 745-785MHz. The volume of the MIMO system is found to be 64 X 80 X 1.6 mm3.
