Abstract

SummaryThis study presents the design, fabrication, and measurement of a novel MIMO antenna for 28 GHz 5G applications. The design includes two compact antennas with dimensions of 12.8 × 12.8 × 1.6 mm3, placed side by side in a symmetrical arrangement. The antenna being considered operates within the 28 GHz frequency range and has excellent characteristics in terms of reflection coefficient, isolation, and impedance matching. The measurements conducted encompassed both single and MIMO setups and focused on important parameters such the reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient, gain, and efficiency. The MIMO antenna exhibited a reflection coefficient of −62.52 dB at a frequency of 27.93 GHz, while the transmission coefficient was found to be −37.23 dB. The antenna attained a gain of 6.02 dB relative to an isotropic radiator (dBi) and exhibited a maximum efficiency of 90.73%, encompassing a bandwidth of 4.45 MHz (MHz). The simulated envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) was found to be less than 0.003, indicating a very low error rate. Additionally, the antenna attained a diversity gain of 9.998 dB. The suggested MIMO antenna is very suitable for 5G applications operating at 28 GHz.
