A 4 × 4 MIMO multiband antenna system for mobile handsets is proposed in this paper. The placement of the elements on the terminal chassis as well as the single structure has been optimized in order to reduce the Envelope Correlation Coefficient (ECC). Simulated and measured results, including also the integration with a a real 7-inch commercial tablet, aimed at validating the proposed solution are presented.

A compact printed MIMO antenna for mobile terminals is presented. With two planar antenna elements, the −6 dB impedance bandwidth of 2.32 GHz (1.48–3.8 GHz) is obtained, which covers GSM 1800/1900, UMTS, WLAN, Wimax, S-band, and most of LTE bands. Each antenna element with a small occupation of 15 × 20 mm2consists of a driven strip and a shorted strip. Two inverted C-shaped ground branches are introduced between two elements to improve the isolation. The simulated results are studied and the measured results show that high isolation of more than 18 dB at the entire operating band is achieved. Meanwhile, the impedance performance is also improved by adding the branches. Furthermore, the measured radiation performances and envelope correlation coefficient also demonstrate that the proposed antenna could be a good candidate for mobile terminals.

В статье представлена компактная MIMO антенна с питанием копланарным волноводом для UWB устройств. Четырехэлементная антенна с питанием копланарным волноводом выполнена в виде излучателя. Развязка между элементами с одинаковой поляризацией и ортогонально поляризованными элементами составляет более 20 и 25 дБ, соответственно. Дополнительный элемент используется для улучшения развязки на более высокой частоте. Смоделированная и измеренная ширина полосы пропускания предложенной широкополосной UWB (ultra wideband) MIMO антенны, определяемая по входному сопротивлению IBW (impedance bandwidth) по уровню 10 дБ, составляет от 3,6 до 10,3 ГГц. Для предложенной антенны также смоделированы и/или измерены коэффициент отражения, развязка, диаграммы направленности, коэффициент корреляции по огибающей ECC (envelope correlation coefficient), полный активный коэффициент отражения TARC (total active reflection coefficient), коэффициент передачи при приеме на разнесенные антенны DG (diversity gain) и потери по пропускной способности канала CCL (channel capacity loss). Получены значения коэффициентов ECC Ј 0,0022, DG > 9,9 дБ, TARC имеет минимальные отклонения при различных углах, а CCL < 0,4 бит/с/Гц при ширине полосы пропускания, определяемой по входному сопротивлению, по уровню 10 дБ. Данная антенна может быть использована в портативных UWB устройствах.

A closely packed wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)/diversity antenna (of two ports) with a small size of less than 18.5 mm by 18.5 mm is proposed for mobile communication applications. The antenna can be orthogonally configured for corner installation or by placing it on a back-to-back structure for compact modules. To enhance the isolation and widen the bandwidth, the antenna is structured with multiple layers having differing dielectric constants. The feeding through a via significantly reduces the ground waves. A multi-fidelity surrogate model-assisted design exploration method is employed to obtain the optimized antenna geometric parameters efficiently. The antenna design was investigated using electromagnetic simulation and a physical realization of the optimal design was then created and subjected to a range of tests. The specific parameters investigated included reflection coefficients, mutual coupling between the input ports, radiation patterns, efficiency and parameters specific to MIMO behavior: envelope correlation coefficient and pattern diversity multiplexing coefficient. It was found that the antenna has an impedance bandwidth of approximately 4 GHz, mutual coupling between input ports of better than −18 dB and an envelope correlation coefficient of less than 0.002 across the operating band. This makes it a good candidate design for many mobile MIMO applications.
