Abstract
AbstractIn this letter, a compact ultrawideband (UWB) multi‐input‐multi‐output (MIMO) antenna with cross‐shaped unconnected Ground stub using characteristic mode analysis (CMA) is presented. The proposed work consists of two elliptical shape monopole UWB antenna with a cross‐shaped stub in the ground plane. The compact MIMO antenna has the dimension of 25 × 25 × 1.6 mm3. These monopoles are able to excite several characteristic modes (CMs), which support to wideband resonance, and cross‐shaped stub support CM at lower frequency band in the ground plane and reduces mutual coupling between monopoles. The UWB MIMO antenna is resonating in frequency bands from 2.97 to 13.8 GHz bandwidth with a good mutual coupling (<−15 dB). The diversity performance envelop correlation coefficient (ECC) and diversity gain (DG) of the antenna are less than 0.05 and more than 9.97, respectively. The experimental result confirming a good treaty with the simulated ones, so that the proposed antenna is suitable for compact UWB MIMO applications.
