UWB-MIMO 4-Port Fractal Antenna with Reduced Mutual Coupling

Abstract

Abstract: UWB MIMO antenna loaded structure Mutual coupling between the four radiating elements is obtained to be less than - 25 db. The patterns of radiation are stable over the operating range and a peak gain of 4.5 dB is obtained at 7.5GHz and Return loss is obtained less than 10dB. Simulation is conducted using HFSS simulation tool and printed on a 30 X 30 X 1.6 mm3 FR4 material. 4 linear SRR structures are used between adjacent elements to ensure good isolation. MIMO antenna with grounded stubs and fractal geometry are used to improve isolation and to achieve wide band phenomena. UWB-MIMO antenna using to achieve better isolation. The UWB MIMO 4-port fractal antenna combines the characteristics of ultra-wideband operation, multiple input multiple output capability, four-port configuration for simultaneous data streams, and a fractal antenna design for wide bandwidth and compact size. This makes it suitable for high-speed, reliable communication in applications requiring UWB technology, such as high-speed data transfer, localization, and radar systems. By integrating a copper rectangular plane between ports, interference and crosstalk are minimized, enhancing the antenna's capability to handle multiple input and output signals efficiently. This innovative design approach not only improves isolation but also contributes to the antenna's overall effectiveness in various communication applications.
