To implement efficient isolation between units of a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) antenna, a defected ground structure (DGS) has been investigated. An antenna with two elements operating at 5.8 GHz and fed by coaxial is considered. To reduce mutual coupling between the elements, a zigzag groove is inserted into the center of two elements formed as a DGS. To verify this design, a scattering matrix was tested, such as reflection coefficient S11 and transmission coefficient S21 between two element ports. Meanwhile, radiation pattern, current distribution, envelope correlation coefficient (ECC), and diversity gain of the antenna were simulated and measured. The results showed that the mutual coupling was reduced by 28.8 dB when a DGS was used, and the ECC was less than 0.02. Owing to these good performances, each antenna element can operate almost independently, and this MIMO antenna can be efficiently applied to the narrow band Internet of Things system.


In this work, a Multi-band wearable microstrip patch antenna designed integrated with the defected ground structure(DGS)[1], and the substrate being used is Denim which is flexible[4] and can be easily fabricated on common wearable materials. This Radiating patch antenna is designed with the optimized dimensions and suits appropriately for the communication in wearable electronics as well as in smart textile application. The designed antenna operates at resonating frequencies of 4.885 GHz and 5.57 GHz. Further the design is modified to a 2-element MIMO [2] antenna using T-shaped Stub matching technique to reduce mutual coupling and resonate at frequency of 8GHz by designing and simulating in CST Microwave Studio 2019 software and the enhanced results like Directivity, Gain, E-field are obtained.
