Abstract :
We propose a compact MIMO antenna with high inter-antenna isolation. It is featured by small radiating elements each of which comprises a meandered line and an open-loop, and a modified T-shaped decoupling structure to lower the interaction between the radiators. For a WiMAX band, the size of the entire MIMO antenna is 0.22λg showing effective miniaturization. And the gain, efficiency and isolation are 3.7dBi, 56% and 17dB, acceptable to the industrial standard.
