Abstract

A low-profile multi-input-multi-output (MIMO)/diversity antenna suitable for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications is presented. In the proposed antenna, two identical elements (each of size 20 × 47 mm2) are designed to operate at 2.4 GHz and other two identical elements (each of size 20.5 × 20 mm2) at 5.8 GHz. All elements of the proposed diversity antenna are printed on 1.6 mm thick FR-4 substrate in a coplanar configuration. By optimizing the distance between the antenna elements (in horizontal and vertical directions), optimal isolation and diversity performance are achieved. Compared to a single feed dual-band antenna, the MIMO/diversity antenna has the ability to transmit or receive the 2.4 and 5.8 GHz signals simultaneously, without any external switching circuit between the module and the proposed antenna.
