The ever-growing expectation for high data rates has led to the introduction of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technologies to wireless connectivity. Such a system requires an MIMO antenna with high isolation. At the same time, the MIMO dimension should not be compromised for achieving high isolation. Thus, isolation techniques that do not allow an increase in dimension need to be fostered for MIMO antenna design. In this paper, a novel low-profile, miniaturized MIMO antenna with high isolation was developed considering a split ring resonator (SRR)-based bandstop filter as a decoupling network. The bandstop filter was designed with a unit cell split ring resonator structure and was deployed between two closely spaced monopole MIMO antenna elements to obtain isolation as high as 39.25 dB at 2.61 GHz. Two open-circuit stub lines were attached with the MIMO feeding network to achieve good impedance matching at resonance frequency. The proposed antenna exhibited a peak gain of 3.8 dBi and radiation efficiency of 84%. It had a low envelop correlation coefficient (ECC < 0.12), high diversity gain (DG > 9.95 dB), low mean effective gain ratio (MEG 1/MEG 2 < 0.05 dB), and low channel capacity loss (CCL < 0.042 bits/s/Hz) at resonance frequency. The overall antenna dimension was restricted to 44 mm ×22 mm (0.38 λ0×0.19 λ0) for its easy integration in compact wireless devices.

A miniaturized 2 x 1 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna is presented in this paper. The designed antenna contains two circular patches with Complimentary Split-Ring Resonator (CSRR) that are etched in the ground which has a profound effect on antenna size reduction. It also helps in the reduction of isolation between two antennas. The maximum isolation between the two antennas is -84.62 dB at 2.8 GHz. The size of an antenna becomes more compact i.e., 40 x 20 x 1.6 mm3 after incorporating CSRR. The maximum gain of the designed antenna is 5.8 dBi at 4.3 GHz and the minimum reflection coefficient is -35.15 dB at 1.63 GHz. The operating band of an antenna is wide from 1.3 GHz to 4.3 GHz which covers Bluetooth, WiMax, and LTE applications. The proposed antenna is useful for various wireless applications.

Modern applications in the realms of wireless communication and mobile broadband Internet increase the demand for compact antennas with well defined directivity. Here, we present an approach for the design and implementation of hybrid antennas consisting of a classic feeding antenna that is near-field-coupled to a subwavelength resonator. In such a combined structure, the composite antenna always radiates at the resonance frequency of the subwavelength oscillator as well as at the resonance frequency of the feeding antenna. While the classic antenna serves as impedance-matched feeding element, the subwavelength resonator induces an additional resonance to the composite antenna. In general, these near-field coupled structures are known for decades and are lately published as near-field resonant parasitic antennas. We describe an antenna design consisting of a high-frequency electric dipole antenna at f d = 25 GHz that couples to a low-frequency subwavelength split-ring resonator, which emits electromagnetic waves at f SRR = 10.41 GHz. The radiating part of the antenna has a size of approximately 3.2 mm × 8 mm × 1 mm and thus is electrically small at this frequency with a product k · a = 0.5 . The input return loss of the antenna was moderate at − 18 dB and it radiated at a spectral bandwidth of 120 MHz. The measured main lobe of the antenna was observed at 60 ∘ with a − 3 dB angular width of 65 ∘ in the E-plane and at 130 ∘ with a − 3 dB angular width of 145 ∘ in the H-plane.

A multi-input multi-output (MIMO) antenna with improved isolation using an interdigital split ring resonator (SRR) is proposed. The necessary impedance bandwidth is obtained by utilizing the coupling between the meander strip and an invertedLstrip. Using interdigital SRR, a negative permeability was generated, while achieving improved isolation between the two radiating elements. The fabricated antenna satisfies the 10 dB return loss in the long-term evolution (LTE) band 40 from 2.3 GHz to 2.4 GHz. The measured peak gains of the two elements were 2.0 dBi and 1.3 dBi. The measured envelope correlation coefficient was less than 0.16 over the frequency band of interest.
