A four channel in band full duplex IBFD antenna array system with shared radiation aperture based on common mode CM and differential mode DM combination is developed in this paper The antenna system consists of two subarrays Exciting any of the four input ports simultaneously excites one subarray in CM and the other subarray in DM The inclusion of both CM and DM in both the boldsymbol xoz and boldsymbol yoz planes leads to identical radiation patterns when any of the four ports are excited The IBFD antenna system was designed fabricated and measured to verify the effectiveness of the method The isolation between any two ports is 38 dB within the bandwidth of 3 3 3 8 GHz 14 4 The gains of all four ports are 8 dBi with large cross polarization discrimination XPD 20 dB Moreover each port of the system exhibits similar and broadside radiation patterns in both the boldsymbol xoz and boldsymbol yoz mathbf planes which demonstrates the excellent potential of this work for IBFD systems in 5G sub 6 GHz applications
