Abstract :
In this paper, the diagonal antenna-chassis mode is introduced to reduce the correlation between MIMO antenna elements. With this mode a wideband LTE MIMO antenna array is proposed, which can cover an impedance bandwidth of 747-960 MHz with an envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) less than 0.5 and an total efficiency better than -3 dB.
