Abstract

In this chapter, a CPW-fed metamaterial-inspired antenna with asymmetrical bell-shaped ground is designed and investigated for wireless applications. The overall size of single-port antenna is 50 × 36 × 0.3 mm3 (0.32 λl × 0.2λl × 0.002λl, where, λl is at lowest cut-off frequency). The top layer of flexible FR-4 dielectric substrate contains an array of 3 × 4 Hilbert-shaped unit cells and asymmetrical bell-shaped partial ground. The proposed antenna offers impedance bandwidth of 1.92 GHz to 2.83 GHz, 3.22 GHz to 3.87 GHz and 5.4 GHz to 5.95 GHz (covering Wi-Fi/Wi-MAX/WLAN standards). Further, to combat the multipath fading or enhance the channel capacity, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna with two elements is analyzed and tested. However, maintenance of isolation between antenna elements is another matter of concern. In view to this, a reverse T-shaped rectangular strip is placed exactly at the middle part of the substrate that inter-connects both bell-shaped CPW grounds. This greatly enhances the inter-port isolation between elements i.e. S21 ≤  − 17.5 dB over operating frequencies 1.92 GHz to 3.3 GHz and 4.6 GHz to 6 GHz (covering Wi-Fi/WLAN standards). Moreover, the measured and simulated results of the proposed 2-element MIMO radiator show good agreement with each other. Furthermore, simulated study of 4-element MIMO antenna with or without actual communication environment has also been analyzed and compared which inevitably makes the proposed antenna a suitable candidate for modern wireless applications.
