Summary: 
In this paper, an indoor repeater antenna with high isolation for WCDMA application is proposed. The designed repeater has very small separation of 20 mm between the donor and server antennas. The antenna has two resonance frequencies to cover the WCDMA band from 1.92 GHz to 2.17 GHz. The fabricated antenna has VSWR below 1.5, gain over 8 dBi, and isolation between server and donor antennas less than -80 dB in the WCDMA band.
