Slotted Meander-Line Resonator (SMLR) is implemented by creating defect in the microstrip structure. This resonator is designed to block the surface current at the resonant frequency of the two patch antennas coupled along H-plane operating at 3.6 GHz. The proposed configuration provides an improvement in isolation by 10 dB (measured value) with a reduced edge-to-edge spacing of 7 mm (λ0/9). This resonator has been designed, simulated, and validated experimentally.
