Abstract :
A new multiple-antenna-port and multiple-user-port antenna tuner has the structure of a multidimensional π-network. It is shown that it is able to provide decoupling and matching in the presence of strong variations in the electromagnetic characteristics of the volume surrounding the antennas.
