Summary:
The mutual coupling of microstrip patch antennas positioned along the E-plane including the effect of edge diffraction is investigated by the experiment and full wave simulation. The optimum substrate size with the minimum mutual coupling is easily calculated by the image method. The optimum substrate sizes calculated by the image method are in good agreement with the results obtained by the full wave simulation and experiment.
