A compensation circuit reduces the negative effects of antenna-to-antenna coupling between proximately located antennas. The compensation circuit is coupled between first and second antenna ports. A first transmit/receive path extends from radio frequency (RF) circuitry to the first antenna port. A second transmit/receive path extends from the RF circuitry to the second antenna port. Antennas are coupled to each of the antenna ports. The compensation circuit includes negatively coupled first and second inductors, which are coupled in series between the first antenna port and the second antenna port. At least one shunt acoustic resonator is coupled between a fixed voltage node and a common node between the first and second inductors. In operation, the compensation circuit presents a negative capacitance between the first antenna port and the second antenna port over the first frequency range to reduce the effects of the antenna-antenna coupling.
