Abstract

A miniature multiple input multiple output (MIMO) ultrawide band (UWB) antenna with dual band notched characteristics is proposed. The proposed MIMO UWB antenna has a microstrip feed line, two slotted rectangular radiating structures, and a slotted reduced ground structure. The antenna is constructed on an FR-4 substrate with a 40 × 20 mm2 compact dimension to span the − 10dB bandwidth of 2.5–12 GHz with a fractional bandwidth of 133%. The two notched bands for WiMAX (3.3–3.8 GHz) and WLAN (5–6.5 GHz), respectively, are generated using hook and E-structured stubs etched on patch and defective ground. Over the full operational frequency range, self-isolation of <-15 dB is obtained between two perpendicular radiating patch structures. 4-element MIMO antenna is also designed, studied and analysed. From the determined MIMO parameters, it can be concluded that the recommended antenna is adequate for portable wireless systems.
