Abstract
A compact dual-band Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Dielectric Resonator Antenna with improved bandwidth for 5G mm-wave applications is presented. Two rectangular DRAs mounted on a substrate backed ground plane are excited by microstrip feed through aperture coupling. Notches cut out from center of the DRAs helps to achieve a dual-band response with improved bandwidth by exciting several modes. The isolation between the DRAs is achieved by appropriately positioning metallic strips on walls on of the DRAs. A dual-band response with enhanced bandwidth and mutual coupling reduction. The impedance bandwidth for the proposed design is between 26.5–30 GHz (12.4 %) and 34.2–40 GHz (15.6 %). The maximum isolation achieved in the lower band is 32 dB and above 45 dB in the upper band. The overall size of the design is 1.88λo x 0.94λo x 0.20λo. The design procedure is described, and the role of decoupling strips are explained. A prototype is fabricated and measured to validate the proposed design.
