Abstract
In this paper, we proposed a 2 × 2 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) dual spiral octagonal prism liquid dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) with snake-shaped defective ground structure (DGS) for space multiplexing of orbital angular momentum (OAM). The DRA element adopts an inner and outer nested dual spiral structure filled with 0.035 g/ml of brine outside and a cylinder filled with distilled water inside. The proposed MIMO antenna can generate resonance at 1.78-3.02 GHz and 4.01-7.73 GHz (S11≤-10 dB). The isolation among ports is below -20 dB at 2.6 GHz and below -40 dB at 5.1 GHz, which can effectively isolate the l = ±1 and l = ±3 modes' OAM waves through the snake-shaped DGS. The proposed MIMO antenna improves spectral efficiency by OAM spatial multiplexing with l = ±1 and l = ±3 modes' OAM, which improves the data transmission efficiency. The proposed MIMO antenna provides a novel, to the best of our knowledge, solution for wireless communications to improve spectral efficiency.
