Abstract

In this communication, a single element cylindrical shape dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) excited by two different feeding techniques; co-planar wave guide (CPW) and aperture coupled feeding, is presented. The proposed antenna is working in the frequency range of (5.39 GHz to 5.85 GHz) for port-1 and (5.46 GHz to 5.85 GHz) for port-2 with fractional bandwidth of 8.15% and 6.87% respectively. By triggering orthogonal modes in the DRA, mutual coupling has been reduced, and the isolation (S12) is improved exceeding −33 dB between both the ports. The multiple input multiple output (MIMO) diversity performance parameters (ECC, DG and CCL) are also calculated using MATLAB code; and it is contained within the agreeable limits. The simulation tool used in the designing of the proposed antenna is Ansys High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. HFSS is 3D electromagnetic (EM) simulation software which uses Finite Element Method (FEM) for simulation.
