    Abstract: In a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system, an apparatus and method includes a Tightly Coupled Array antennas (TCA) or Current Sheet Antennas (CSA). Far-field radiation patterns from any current sheet antenna are formed from the combination of the fields generated by a set of currents on the CSA of array port orthogonal modes, such as the Characteristic Modes (CM). The CM currents are generated by excitation of the CSA element ports with corresponding orthogonal voltages or currents (eigenvectors). Since the radiation patterns of the characteristic modes are orthogonal and uncorrelated, multiple signals may be propagated along the radiation patterns of the characteristic modes, each signal using a different characteristic mode or a different set of characteristic modes. Therefore, a CSA antenna utilizing array port orthogonal modes such as array port characteristic modes can support MIMO communications despite the strong mutual coupling among the antenna elements.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a lens having a plurality of layers of conductive elements and a plurality of layers of dielectric. Each of the layers of dielectric is disposed between and in contact with two of the layers of conductive elements. Different layers of conductive elements can include different numbers of conductive elements. The layers of conductive elements and the layers of dielectric can form a Cauer/Elliptic frequency selective surface. The lens could include only three layers of conductive elements and only two layers of dielectric, where the lens is a mixed-order frequency selective surface with a middle layer of conductive elements having fewer conductive elements than outer layers of conductive elements. A size of the conductive elements in at least one of the layers of conductive elements could vary as distance from a center of the lens increases.
