Abstract
En 中文
This letter presents a highly isolated compact four-element planar ultrawideband (UWB) multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna array configuration. The main advantages of the proposed array configuration are that it requires no isolation/decoupling circuit and the configuration is easily extendable to larger size array. The array consists of novel miniaturized slotted annular ring monopole antenna and each element in the array is placed orthogonal to its adjacent elements. The fabricated structure provides good impedance bandwidth matching and high isolation between elements over the range from 3 to 15 GHz. The absence of decoupling circuit results in overall compact size of the proposed design. The prototypes are fabricated and tested. The simulated and measured results are in good agreement. Moreover, the envelope correlation coefficient and channel capacity loss of the array are calculated, which shows good MIMO performance. The proposed monopole antenna structure supports multielement UWB MIMO antenna array design with easy extension of elements and without any decoupling circuit. An example of eight-element array is also investigated.
