In this article, a Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) H-shape Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA) is designed and simulated at 2.6 GHz for 4G applications. The proposed structure consists of H-shape DRA ( =10) which is mounted on FR4 substrate ( =4.6), and feed by two different feeding mechanisms. First, microstrip with slot coupling as Port 1. Second, coaxial probe as Port 2. The electrical properties of the proposed MIMO H-shape DRA in term of return loss, bandwidth and gain are completely obtained by using CST Microwave Studio Suite Software. The simulated results demonstrated a return loss more than 20 dB, an impedance bandwidth of 26 % (2.2 – 2.9 GHz), and gain of 6.11 dBi at Port 1. Then, a return loss more than 20 dB, an impedance bandwidth of 13 % (2.2 – 2.7 GHz), and gain of 6.63 dBi at Port 2. Both ports indicated impedance bandwidth more than 10 %, return loss lower than 20 dB, and gain more than 10 dBi at 2.6 GHz. The simulated electrical properties of the proposed design show a good potential for LTE applications.

Mutual Coupling Reduction

Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna is at core of the presently available wireless technologies. The design of MIMO antennas over a limited space requires various approaches of mutual coupling reduction, otherwise gain, efficiency, diversity gain, and radiation patterns will be severely affected. Various techniques have been reported in literature to control this degrading factor and to improve the performance of the MIMO antennas. In this review paper, we have carried out an extensive thorough investigation of diversity and mutual coupling (correlation) reduction techniques in compact MIMO antennas.

A single radiator that is a part of four-port diversity Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna design is composed of four octagonal rings embedded between the two opposite sides of a T-shaped conductive layer surrounded by inverted angular edge cut L-shaped and E-shaped structures. The radiators are placed at the four corners with common ground at the center of a smartphone to form a four-element mobile MIMO antenna. The printing of the antenna is carried out on the flexible polyamide substrate (dielectric constant = 3.5 and loss tangent = 0.0027) with dimensions of 70 × 145 × 0.2 mm3. A wide impedance bandwidth of (84.12%) 2.39 to 5.86 GHz is achieved for all four radiators. The compact size of the radiators along with their placement enables the proposed MIMO antenna to occupy much less area while preserving the space for 2G/3G/4G antennas. The placement of the antennas results in self-isolation between antenna elements by achieving isolation greater than 17.5 dB in the desired operating bands. Furthermore, besides showing a high efficiency of 85% and adequate gain above 4 dBi, good diversity performances such as Envelope Correlation Coefficient (ECC) of less than 0.05, Diversity Gain (DG) of above 9.8 dB, Mean Effective Gain (MEG) of −3.1 dB, Channel Capacity of 21.50 bps/Hz, and Total Active Reflection Coefficient (TARC) of below −10 dB are achieved by the flexible MIMO smartphone antenna. The effect of bending along the X and Y-axis on the performance of the proposed MIMO antenna is also analyzed where decent performance is observed. This makes the proposed flexible four-element MIMO antenna a potential candidate to be deployed in future smartphones.

Abstract A compact four-element ultra-wideband (UWB) multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) antenna with dual polarization and dual-notched capabilities was developed and fabricated. The MIMO antenna is composed of four orthogonally placed half-cutting UWB antenna elements. This orthogonal placement improves the isolation. Furthermore, an L-shaped slot and a continuous bending slot are etched to realize the band-rejection function in the WiMAX and WLAN bands. The result shows that the antenna achieved operating bands of 2.9–16.5 GHz (140.2%, S11 < −10 dB), fully covering the UWB (3.1–10.6 GHz). The port isolation is greater than 23 dB in the frequency band of interest, excluding two rejected bands. Moreover, the MIMO antenna has excellent diversity performance, such as a low envelope correlation coefficient (<0.004), high diversity gain (approximately 10 dB), and good omnidirectional radiation characteristics.

In this paper, a dual band multiple-input-multiple-output dielectric resonator antenna for wireless local area network application is presented. Two identical feeding techniques are used to feed the proposed antenna. The simulated impedance bandwidth for both port are the same which are 6.5% at 2.45 GHz and 3% at 5.2 GHz. The DRA also has an acceptable value of isolation over the operating frequency. The simulated S-parameter and other multiple-input-multiple-output parameters are studied and observed.
