This letter presents a dual-band inverted-F multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna with improved isolation, covering the 2.4/5-GHz wireless local networks (WLAN) band. The proposed MIMO antenna is composed of two symmetrical winding inverted-F antenna elements. The two antenna elements are closely spaced with about 0.115 λ0of the lower band. The high isolation is achieved by building two decoupling devices, a meandering resonant branch and an inverted T-shaped slot etched on the ground for the higher band and the lower band, respectively. Furthermore, two U-shaped slits achieving better impedance matching are etched on the 50-Ω feeding lines to broaden the bandwidth of the high band. The impedance bandwidth (S11<; -10 dB) of the proposed antenna covers 2.4-2.48 GHz in the lower band and 5.15-5.825 GHz in the upper band, and the proposed configuration obtains 15-dB isolation within the 2.4- and 5-GHz WLAN bands, which shows a significant improvement compared to the initial design of the MIMO antenna. The simulation and measurement results indicate that the proposed inverted-F MIMO antenna system is quite suitable for WLAN applications.
