In the thesis, we use the concept of single-negative metamaterials to reduce the antennas¡¦ coupling. Firstly, the multilayer insulator is proposed to enhance the isolation bandwidth. The isolation bandwidth is broadened by adjusting the individual layer of insulators with close but different operating frequencies. Then, the designed multilayer insulator is inserted in a planar antenna system. Isolation of the MIMO antenna system is below than -20dB. The measured and simulated isolation bandwidth is 8% and 6.9%, respectively. We then design dual-band insulators for dual-band MIMO antenna applications. The proposed dual-band insulator is implemented bystacking the insulators with different operating bands and the isolation of the dual-band MIMO antenna can be improved at both 2.6 and 3.5GHz bands.
In the broadband insulator design, the T-shaped branch is proposed to broadenthe operating bandwidth. The measured isolation bandwidth is improved by 12.8% than that of the multilayer insulator. The bandwidth of the proposed broadband
insulator can be used in other broadband communication standards.
