A device is presented for improving radio frequency (RF) and microwave array antenna performance. The device sits in the near field, the reactive region, of the antenna array with a pattern of electrically isolated rectangular, cross-shaped, ell, and/or similarly-shaped patches of flat metal or other conductor in a flat plane. The patches are segmented into smaller shapes no greater than 0.3 of a shortest wavelength of the nominal operating range of the antenna and/or the height of the plane is greater than 0.25 and/or less than 0.4 of the center frequency's wavelength. Mutual coupling S-parameters between neighboring elements are either simulated or measured, and the patch sizes or height are designed such that |S.sub.21.sup.Refl| is in a range of |S.sub.21.sup.Array|?20% of |S.sub.21.sup.Array|; and Phase(S.sub.21.sup.Refl) is in a range of Phase(S.sub.21.sup.Array)+180?30 degrees, where S.sub.21.sup.Array is an S-parameter between antenna two neighboring antenna elements measured or simulated without the device, where S.sub.21.sup.ADS is the same with the device, and S.sub.21.sup.Refl=S.sub.21.sup.ADS?S.sub.21.sup.Array.

An antenna structure includes a board unit and a coil unit. The board unit includes a metal board and an insulating board connected with or adjacent to the metal board, and the coil unit is disposed beside the same side of the metal board and the insulating board. In one embodiment, when one narrow side of the metal board and one narrow side of the insulating board connects with each other, the coil unit is disposed right under the commissure of the metal board and the insulating board. In addition, more than half or half of the area of the coil unit is covered by the insulating board, and less than half or half of the area of the coil unit is covered by the metal board. The current direction on the metal board and the current direction on the coil unit are the same as clockwise or counterclockwise.
