This paper presents a long-term evolution (LTE) 700 MHz band multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna, and high isolation between the two symmetrical antenna elements is obtained without introducing extra decoupling structure. Each antenna element is a combination antenna of PIFA and a meander monopole antenna. The end of the PIFA and the meander monopole antenna are, respectively, overlapped with the 50 Ω microstrip feed line, the two overlapping areas produce additional capacitance which can be considered decoupling structures to enhance the isolation for the MIMO antenna, as well as the impedance matching of the antenna elements. The MIMO antenna is etched on FR4 PCB board with dimensions of 71 × 40 × 1.6 mm3; the edge-to-edge separation of the two antenna elements is only nearly 0.037 λat 700 MHz. Both simulation and measurement results are used to confirm the MIMO antenna performance; the operating bandwidth is 698–750 MHz withS11≤−6 dB andS21≤−23 dB.

In this manuscript, a dual notched superwideband Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) monopole antenna is verified in frequency, time and spatial domain. Antenna occupies space of 18340.787 mm3 and is printed on (Rogers RT Duroid5880) microwave substrate. Proposed antenna is capable of covering bandwidth 2.66 GHz–22.31 GHz with bandwidth ratio > 10:1. Proposed antenna rejects WiMAX/C band (3.28 GHz–4.36 GHz) which is obtained by using L-shaped stub connected with ground and X-band satellite downlink/uplink interference is removed by etching inverted U-shaped slit in microstrip feedline. Also, antenna offers maximum gain of and radiation efficiency of 5.30 dBi and 96.20% respectively in operating band. Proposed antenna also shows good diversity performance in terms of ECC (Envelope Correlation Coefficient), DG (Directive Gain) and TARC (Total Active Reflection Coefficient).

A compact high isolation ultrawideband (UWB) multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna is designed. The proposed MIMO antenna consists of a rectangular monopole antenna and a slot antenna fed by two microstrip lines, respectively. To improve the impedance matching, a circular coupling structure is designed to feed the tapered slot antenna. The parasitic resonance introduced by the ground stub helps to extend the impedance bandwidth of monopole antenna at the upper UWB band. Commonly used complex decoupling or coupling structures are eliminated that endow the proposed antenna minimized foot print, which is preferred in mobile handset. Although without decoupling structure, high isolation is obtained between two antenna elements. Simulation and measurement verify the antenna’s desirable performance, showing a broad impedance bandwidth of 3.1–10.6 GHz with |S11| < −10 dB and |S21| < −20 dB over 3.4–10.6 GHz, and |S21| < −18 dB from 3.1–3.4 GHz.
