  • Abstract
    A novel high isolation MIMO antenna for WLAN and WiMax operation is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of two back-to-back G-shaped monopoles placed symmetrically with respect to a mushroom-like EBG structure. The measured results show that the proposed MIMO antenna covers WLAN (2350-2550 MHz) and WiMax (3500-3690 MHz) bands with high isolation. The antenna can provide pattern diversity to combat multipath fading.
