Abstract

This paper studies the benefits of the antenna cluster technique in exciting the orthogonal modes of a metal rim for MIMO operation in the low-band frequencies. The user effect with antenna clusters is studied with measurements of antenna prototype held by a hand phantom. On average, better than 20% total efficiency is achieved over the low-band frequencies and almost 30% average efficiency over the higher frequencies which suggests that the antenna cluster technique can be used to design user effective mobile device antennas.
