Abstract

Apparatus include two or more radiating elements connected to a feed network of an antenna, and one or more dummy elements positioned between the two or more radiating elements. The dummy elements are not connected to the feed network of the antenna. Such an arrangement may result in reduced mutual coupling of the two or more radiating elements, and increased antenna performance.
