A four-element multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna has been designed to operate at triple wide bands with improved port-isolation and polarisation diversity. The resonant modes of the MIMO are achieved by meander slot-loaded elliptical-shaped fundamental radiators, and the inter-port isolation is achieved by employing neutralising line-embedded ground plane. Apart from port-isolation, the proposed MIMO also offers polarisation diversity at different operating bands. The triple-band MIMO offers linear polarised radiation at WLAN band (4.2–5.6 GHz), right-hand circular polarised (RHCP) radiation at C-band (6.3–7.5 GHz) and left-hand circular polarised (LHCP) radiation at X-band (8.7–9.3 GHz). The overall isolation (>27 dB), envelope correlation co-efficient (ECC<0.0005), diversity gain (DG>9.9995), mean effective gain (MEG<0.734 dB), total active reflection co-efficient (TARC<−20 dB) and channel …
