Abstract
A 2-port wideband circular polarized (CP) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) integrated with cognitive radio (CR) application is designed and investigated. This is a novel concept of integrating wideband CP-MIMO antenna based on dielectric resonator (DR), with CR concept. The multi-functional reconfigurable filter is designed within the feedline of the antenna making it applicable for both the operations of CR, namely, underlay and interweave. Rogers RT Duroid 5880 is used as the substrate for the designed CP-MIMO antenna. The antenna shows wide Axial Ratio (AR) bandwidth of 48.14% (2.2–3.50 GHz) and an overlapping bandwidth of 41.85% (2.37–3.50 GHz). The DR based MIMO antenna shows sensing range of 2.37–3.66 GHz. For the interweave operation, the designed CP-MIMO antenna shows narrowband frequency reconfigurability from 2.45–2.83 GHz. For the underlay case, the designed antenna shows band notch tunability between 3.23–3.62 GHz. The proposed antenna can be used effectively in sub-6 GHz band of the 5G communication systems.
