Abstract
An antenna system comprises a parasitic element, which is an electrically tuned structural element, installed between antennas to reduce or eliminate antenna-to-antenna coupled electromagnetic interference by emitting destructive interference in the direction from one antenna to another antenna. The antenna system comprises a first antenna operating at a first wavelength, a second antenna operating at a second wavelength, and a parasitic element located between the first antenna and the second antenna for reducing the amplitude of signals from the first antenna that would otherwise create electromagnetic interference in a receiver connected to the second antenna. The parasitic element is typically spaced from the first antenna by a distance substantially equal to one quarter of the first wavelength. The parasitic element generally has a height that is greater than the height of the first antenna.
