A compact three-port metamaterial multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna
using complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR) loaded ground have demonstrated in order to
reduce the size and enhance the antenna performance. The antenna is designed on FR-4 material
and simulated by HFSS software. Furthermore, the simulated results show that the proposed
MIMO antenna achieves the total gain higher than 5 dB, the isolation less than -11 dB, the
envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) value lower than 0.015, and the bandwidth of 100 MHz
through the entire WLAN band from 2.4 GHz to 2.484 GHz, indicating promises for WLAN
applications
