Abstract

A miniaturized with a high gain four port Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) is presented in the manuscript. The presented design contains four radiating patch elements with a Defected Ground Structure (DGS). The shape of the radiating element is identified after the analysis of three stages. The design optimization is performed by changing the diameter of the circle loaded in the patch region and changing the length of the ground layer. The design is investigated for L, S, C, and X frequency band regions. The structure is designed using flame-retardant glass-reinforced epoxy laminate material (FR4) substrate material. The physical size of the four-port structure is 78x50 mm2. Three resonating frequency bands are observed at 2.02 GHz, 5.87 GHz and 11.19 GHz. The structure provides minimum return loss of −10.27 dB, −18.51 dB and −18.59 dB. The proposed design achieves a peak bandwidth of 3.94 GHz, and a maximum gain of 10.03 dBi, Various diversity parameters, including Total active reflection coefficient (TARC), Envelope Correlation Coefficient (ECC), mean effective gain (MEG), Diversity Gain (DG), and channel capacity loss (CCL), have been thoroughly analyzed. The measured and simulated outcomes are compared and analyzed. All performance indicators meet the allowed limits, demonstrating the suitability of the design for 5G, Wi-Fi and WLAN wireless communication applications.
