Abstract

This paper studies the use of antenna cluster technique in mobile antenna systems and especially its use in reducing the user effect. The study is conducted with measurements of two different antenna designs using a hand phantom to represent the user holding the device. The results show that antenna designs based on the antenna cluster technique can retain good performance in the presence of a user. Furthermore, the cluster technique can also be used to reduce the user effect by adapting the cluster operation for different environments.
