Abstract
Conference Title: 2017 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation & USNC/URSI National Radio Science Meeting Conference Start Date: 2017, July 9 Conference End Date: 2017, July 14 Conference Location: San Diego, CA, USA This paper presents the design of a metamaterial MIMO antenna which operates at 5.8 GHz. The left handed single cell of series capacitor and shunt inductor are considered the main block of the antenna elements. The configuration of the shunt stub is reversed to achieve lower coupling between the antenna elements The small size of only 2.93c×2.6cm and high isolation of more than 35 dB are considered to be the main advantageous of the proposed metamaterial MIMO design. Experimental measurements of the fabricated antenna design agree with simulation results.
