This paper is about the design of omnidirectional MIMO microstrip antenna at 1.8 GHz. To increase the gain of antenna, each antenna that is used in this design is a collinear patch antenna array. We use FR-4 as antenna with 4.3 constant dielectric and 1.6 mm thickness. The result of simulation shows that the antenna has 359 MHz bandwidth at 1.6-1.9 GHz frequency with -10dB return loss, has a gain of 7.575 dB, mutual coupling between -22 to -27 dB and has an omnidirectional radiation pattern.
