A printed diversity monopole antenna for WLAN operation in the 2.4 GHz band is presented. The antenna comprises two orthogonal linear monopoles placed symmetrically with respect to a T-shaped ground plane between them. The antenna has two highly decoupled ports and can provide spatial diversity to combat the multipath interference problem.
