A novel wideband printed diversity antenna for mobile handsets is proposed and studied. The antenna consists of two monopoles with symmetric configuration. The effects of some parameters of the proposed antenna are studied. The measured relative bandwidth reaches to 29.0% (1860–2490 MHz) with acceptable isolation over the bandwidth. The measured radiation patterns of the two monopoles cover complementary space regions. The diversity performance is approximately calculated, and the results show that the proposed antenna can provide spatial and pattern diversity. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
