Abstract :
In this paper, we proposes a compact of design MIMO antenna design for laptop computers. This design has an advantage of compact size and good isolation. Total size of the antennas are 70 × 8 × 0.8 mm3, and the size of the ground plane are 205 × 267 mm3. Meander strip connected to the ground is for isolation enhancement, it successfully reduce the total size. Proposes antenna use in WiMAX 2.3 GHz to 2.7 GHz, 3.4 GHz to 3.7GHz and high band 5.25GHz to 5.85GHz. In these bands, S12 are all below -15dB; even S12 at high band are under -20dB. Other detail of the design and results will be discussed in this paper.
