Abstract

In this study, a lumped component based frequency reconfigurable multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) receiving wire design is presented. The proposed antenna is composed of a planar structure in form of F-shaped together with a slotted and defected ground structure for bandwidth and isolation enhancement. The MIMO antenna operates in six frequencies upon the state of the four lumped element switches. The proposed receiving wire design exhibits a multiband frequency reconfigurable characteristics from 1-7GHz with isolation of more than 14dB for the whole band, with efficiency of about 75%. The MIMO antenna’s behavior in terms of ratio of square root of the sum of power reflected wave to the incident wave (TARC), ECC and CCL are all within the acceptable limits. The design is suitable for personal communication system (PCS), WIMAX and WLAN wireless applications.
