In this work, a Multi-band wearable microstrip patch antenna designed integrated with the defected ground structure(DGS)[1], and the substrate being used is Denim which is flexible[4] and can be easily fabricated on common wearable materials. This Radiating patch antenna is designed with the optimized dimensions and suits appropriately for the communication in wearable electronics as well as in smart textile application. The designed antenna operates at resonating frequencies of 4.885 GHz and 5.57 GHz. Further the design is modified to a 2-element MIMO [2] antenna using T-shaped Stub matching technique to reduce mutual coupling and resonate at frequency of 8GHz by designing and simulating in CST Microwave Studio 2019 software and the enhanced results like Directivity, Gain, E-field are obtained.

This paper presents the isolation improvement techniques of a microstrip patch array antenna for the indoor wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) repeater applications. One approach is to construct the single-feed switchable feed network structure with an MS/NRI coupled-line coupler in order to reduce the mutual coupling level between antennas. Another approach is to insert the soft surface unit cells near the edges of the microstrip patch elements in order to reduce backward radiation waves. In order to further improve the isolation level, the server antenna and donor antenna are installedinorthogonal direction. The fabricated antenna exhibits a gain over 7 dBi and higher isolation level between server and donor antennas below −70 dB at WCDMA band.

<p><em>In this paper, we perfect the mutual coupling of compact microstrip array antenna by designing a new defected ground structure. When the resonant frequency is 2.45GHz, array element spacing is 0.1 times of free space wavelength, we introduce new defected ground structure into antenna array. Then we use HFSS to make simulation and compare the changing of antenna's parameters before and after adding defected ground structure. The results demonstrate that the parameters representing mutual coupling in new model can reduce by 30dB, which effectively perfects the mutual coupling of compact microstrip array antenna.</em><em></em></p>
