A 2´1 (two-element) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) patch antenna system is designed and fabricated for (2.43 – 2.57) GHz LTE band 7 operation. It uses comple-mentary split -ring resonator (CSRR) loading on its ground plane for antenna miniaturization. This reduces the single-element antenna size by 76%. The total board size of the proposed MIMO antenna system, including the GND plane is 50´50´0.8mm3, while the single-patch antenna element has a size of 18.5 ´16mm2. The antenna is fabricated and tested. Measured results are in good agreement with simulations. A minimum measured isolation of 10 dB is obtained given the close interelement spacing of 0.17λ.

Abstract For the operation of 2.45GHz ISM band, a 2x2 Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna system is designed and fabricated. Complementary Split Ring Resonator (CSRR) is used in the MIMO patch and loaded on its ground plane to miniaturize the single antenna element. The single patch antenna element of 14x18 mm2 is fixed in a board of the Designed MIMO antennae system measuring 100x50x0.8 mm3. The antenna is tested by measuring radiation pattern, gain, VSWR, mutual coupling and return loss. The results of the Designed antenna systems are in good agreement with the simulations. In comparison to a conventional microstrip antenna, the Designed antenna achieves a 75% reduction in the resonant frequency.

A compact three-port metamaterial multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna using complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR) loaded ground have demonstrated in order to miniaturize the size and improve the antenna performance. The antenna is designed on FR4 material and simulated by HFSS software. By loading CSRRs in the ground plane, the size reduction of 77% of the individual patch antenna element is achieved, which appeared to be the major reason for the obtained the compact MIMO antenna. Furthermore, the simulated results show that the proposed MIMO antenna achieves the total gain higher than 5 dB, the isolation less than -11 dB, the envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) value lower than 0.015, and the bandwidth of 100 MHz through the whole WLAN band from 2.4 GHz to 2.484 GHz, indicating promises for WLAN applications.

With the development of 5G, Internet of Things, and smart home technologies, miniaturized and compact multi-antenna systems and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna arrays have attracted increasing attention. Reducing the coupling between antenna elements is essential to improving the performance of such MIMO antenna system. In this work, we proposed a graphene-assembled, as an alternative material rather than metal, film-based MIMO antenna array with high isolation for 5G application. The isolation of the antenna element is improved by a graphene assembly film (GAF) frequency selective surface and isolation strip. It is shown that the GAF antenna element operated at 3.5 GHz has the realized gain of 2.87 dBi. The addition of the decoupling structure improves the isolation of the MIMO antenna array to more than 10 dB and corrects the antenna radiation pattern and operating frequency. The isolation between antenna elements with an interval of 0.4λ is above 25 dB. All experimental results show that the GAF antenna and decoupling structure are efficient devices for 5G mobile communication.

In this paper, A multiple input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna using two Square Dielectric Resonators (SDRs) is introduced. The mutual coupling between the two SDRAs is reduced using two different methods; the first method is based on splitting a spiral slot in the ground plane, then filling the slot with dielectric material, "E.=2.2". The second method is based on inserting a copper parasitic element, having the same shape of the splitted Spiral, between the two SDRAs.  The effect of replacing the copper parasitic element with Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) parasitic element "SOC12 doped long-MWCNT BP" is also studied. The antenna system is designed to operate at 6 GHz. The analysis and simulations are carried out using finite element method (FEM). The defected ground plane method gives a maximum isolation of l8dB at element spacing of 30mm (0.6λo), whereas the parasitic element method gives a maximum isolation of 42.5dB at the same element spacing.

A wideband multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna system with common elements suitable for SCADA wireless communication backhaul application which is operating frequency of 0.85-2.6GHz that can cover global system for mobile communication (GSM) 900MHz and 1.8GHz, The Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) 2GHz, Wi-Fi (2.4GHz) and Long Term Evolution (LTE) 2.6GHz is proposed. The proposed MIMO antenna system consists of four microstrip feedline with common radiating element and a frame shaped ground plane. A single port antenna also was designed and presented in this paper to show the process to design wideband MIMO antenna structure. The radiator of the MIMO antenna system is designed as the shape of modified rectangle with straight line at each corner to enhance the bandwidth frequency. To improve the isolation between ports, the ground plane is modified by inserting four L-slots in each corner to reduce mutual coupling. For an antenna efficiency of more than 60%, the simulated reflection coefficients are below -10dB for all ports at expected frequency. Simulated isolation is achieved greater than -10dB by using a modified ground plane. Also, a low envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) less than 0.1 and polarization diversity gain of about 10dB with the orthogonal mode of linear polarization and omnidirectional pattern during the analysis of the radiation characteristic are achieved. Therefore, the proposed design can be used for SCADA wireless communication backhaul application.

AbstractThis paper presents a twelve-port ultra-wideband multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO)/diversity antenna integrated with GSM and Bluetooth bands. The twelve-port antenna is constructed by arranging four elements in the horizontal plane and eight elements in the vertical plane. The antenna element, which is created using a simple rectangular monopole, exhibits a frequency range of 3.1 to 12 GHz. The additional Bluetooth and GSM bands are achieved by introducing stubs into the ground plane. The size of the MIMO antenna is 100 × 100 mm2. The antenna offers polarization diversity, with vertical and horizontal polarization in each plane. The diversity antenna has a bandwidth of 1.7–1.9 GHz, 2.35–2.55 GHz, and 3–12 GHz, the radiation efficiency of 90%, and peak gain of 2.19 dBi. The proposed antenna offers an envelope correlation coefficient of < 0.12, apparent diversity gain of > 9.9 dB, effective diversity gain of > 8.9 dB, mean effective gain of < 1 dB, and channel capacity loss of < 0.35 bits/s/Hz. Also, the MIMO antenna is tested for housing effects in order to determine its suitability for automotive applications.

Abstract In this work, a unique wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna for fifth-generation (5G) applications is introduced. Each antenna element in the MIMO system is formed using a modified parasitic ring. To improve the performance of the antenna, a rectangular-shaped region is etched into the opposite side of each element in the ground plane. The proposed MIMO antenna is designed on a commercially available FR-4 substrate, having total dimensions of 100 × 60 × 0.8 mm3. Most interestingly, the antenna has a measured bandwidth from 2.60 to 5.97 GHz. This will effectively encompass the most predicted feasible bands for futuristic 5G communications, including 5G new radio frequency bands (N77/N78/N79) and long-term evolution (LTE) 46 band. The performance of a single antenna is evaluated in terms of S-parameters, gain, radiation patterns and efficiency. The performance of the MIMO system is also evaluated in terms of the envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) and diversity gain (DG). The designed antenna is fabricated, and the simulation results are verified practically. Good agreement is reached between simulation and measurement results. The proposed design is a good choice for 5G applications that require wideband capabilities.

A compact, low-profile, coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed quad-port multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO)/diversity antenna with triple band-notched (Wi-MAX, WLAN, and X-band) characteristics is proposed for super-wideband (SWB) applications. The proposed design contains four similar truncated–semi-elliptical–self-complementary (TSESC) radiating patches, which are excited through tapered CPW feed lines. A complementary slot matching the radiating patch is introduced in the ground plane of the truncated semi-elliptical antenna element to obtain SWB. The designed MIMO/diversity antenna displays a bandwidth ratio of 31:1 and impedance bandwidth (|S11| ≤ − 10 dB) of 1.3–40 GHz. In addition, a complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR) is implanted in the resonating patch to eliminate WLAN (5.5 GHz) and X-band (8.5 GHz) signals from SWB. Further, an L-shaped slit is used to remove Wi-MAX (3.5 GHz) band interferences. The MIMO antenna prototype is fabricated, and a good agreement is achieved between the simulated and experimental outcomes.

In this report, a compact antenna system with dual-band-notched characteristics is proposed for ultra-wideband (UWB) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) applications. Two antenna elements are placed side by side and fed with matched microstrip lines on a substrate with an area of 35 × 30 mm2. Notched characteristics at WiMAX (3.4–3.6 GHz) and WLAN (5.725–5.825 GHz) have been achieved using complementary split ring resonator (SRR) slots etched in both the antenna elements. Electromagnetic isolation between the two elements close to each other is achieved using a ground T-stub and slots etched in the ground plane. Antenna system has been tested and measured results are close to the desired ones. Measured isolation >20 dB is obtained in most of the UWB bands. The proposed antenna system meets the requirements well for MIMO applications.
