4. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper, a mushroom like EBG structure is employed
to design antenna array to minimize the mutual coupling in
between the patch antenna array .The proposed antenna is
simulated in Ansoft HFSS. The simulated results show that
the mutual coupling is reduced by 18dB in antenna which
is operating at 5.8GHz WLAN Band and the EBG structure
method is also compared with other approaches.
