Abstract
This communication describes the development and assessment of the genuine Antipodal Vivaldi MIMO antenna operating in the ultra-wideband spectrum. FR4 dielectric material, which is widely used in antenna designs and has characteristic features, is selected and used as a dielectric. The single antenna component has two asymmetric flares obtained with different parameters, and it also has a rectangular ground plane combined with a bottom flare. In the MIMO configuration, the single-antenna is built in a rotationally orthogonal way to generate a four-port system with the dimensions of 45 × 45 × 1 mm3. The vertical and horizontal stubs are added to the ground flare to obtain a common ground structure and increase the performance of the novel antenna design. It has a bandwidth of approximately 9 GHz, which starts from 2.85 GHz and ends at 11.8 GHz. The antenna has reasonable gain values and a high isolation value between the elements in the operation range. In this context, it is foreseen that the developed structure can be utilized in distinct multiport UWB applications.
