High Isolation Internal Dual-Band Planar Inverted-F Antenna Diversity System with Band-Notched Slots for MIMO Terminals

Abstract

Internal dual-band planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) diversity system for portable devices, operating in the 2.4-GHz band (2400-2484MHz) and 5.2-GHz band (5150-5350MHz), is presented. To reduce the mutual coupling and get the high isolation between the two internal dual-band antennas, we proposed the band-notched lambda/4 slots on the ground plane. The optimized band-notched slots for high isolation, high radiation efficiency and high effective diversity gain are analyzed. The band-notched slots can be used to the small MIMO terminals which require high isolation between antennas
