Abstract

ABSTRACTIn this article, a wideband ceramic-based dual port MIMO (Multi Input Multi Output) antenna is investigated and analyzed. Wideband features are obtained with the assistance of asymmetrical dumbbell-shaped cylindrical ceramic. Triple-band circular polarized waves are also obtained with an S-shaped aperture having unequal strip length. Other special characteristic of the proposed MIMO radiator is to achieve bidirectional pattern diversity by placing radiators in opposite direction. Measured outcomes confirm that the proposed radiator offers a fractional bandwidth of 65.04% (4.02 to 7.89 GHz) with less than −25 dB mutual coupling between two identical ports. In between the three frequencies range, i.e., 4.75 to 5.02 GHz, 5.75 to 6.2 GHz, and 7.55 to 7.82 GHz, the value of axial ratio is well below the value of 3 dB. Measured far-field pattern and diversity parameters authorize the appropriateness of the proposed radiator in MIMO system.
