Abstract
Abstract In this article, a planar dual-element frequency reconfigurable multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications is studied. The frequency band can be switched between UWB operation and single band rejected UWB performance using a pair of PIN diodes in the MIMO configuration. The presented antenna is comprised of two similar slotted circular radiators, having tapered microstrip feedlines and separate partial ground planes. An RT/Duroid 5880 substrate with size 54 × 54 mm2 is used for the design purpose. Rotational symmetry between the radiators and diagonally oriented t-shaped decoupling structure behind the substrate have been utilized for high isolation purpose. The designed MIMO antenna exhibits UWB performance in mode 1. In other mode, the antenna operates in the frequency range 2.46–10.44 GHz with Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) band rejection. Thus, the MIMO antenna exhibits on-demand single band rejection behavior depending on the switching conditions of the diodes. The measured isolation is greater than −20 dB in both the modes. The presented MIMO configuration possesses compact and planar geometry with high gain, good isolation, ultrawideband performance with reconfigurable band elimination, high efficiency and efficient diversity performance parameters. The suggested antenna is a good choice to be utilized for portable UWB MIMO applications.
期刊介绍:
Frequenz is one of the leading scientific and technological journals covering all aspects of RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering. It is a peer-reviewed, bi-monthly published journal.
Frequenz was first published in 1947 with a circulation of 7000 copies, focusing on telecommunications. Today, the major objective of Frequenz is to highlight current research activities and development efforts in RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering throughout a wide frequency spectrum ranging from radio via microwave up to THz frequencies.
RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering is a very active area of Research & Development as well as of Applications in a wide variety of fields. It has been the key to enabling technologies responsible for phenomenal growth of satellite broadcasting, wireless communications, satellite and terrestrial mobile communications and navigation, high-speed THz communication systems. It will open up new technologies in communications, radar, remote sensing and imaging, in identification and localization as well as in sensors, e.g. for wireless industrial process and environmental monitoring as well as for biomedical sensing.
