Abstract :
Antenna miniaturization is highly demanded for modern communication devices. In this paper, a novel concept for designing low profile near-edge antennas is introduced. The proposed antenna is based on a planar resonator structure. The antenna operates around 2.45 GHz and 2.8 GHz. Broad operation bandwidth is achieved by multiple resonance modes excitation. Two designs of 2-element compact antenna arrays for multiple input and multiple output applications are also investigated.
