A low-profile, compact and efficient antenna is especially desirable for wireless applications, as it can reduce the size and weight of the system and improve its performance. In recent years, flower-shaped antennas have gained popularity due to their low profile, broad bandwidth and good radiation characteristics. In this work, a high-isolated dual-element UWB-MIMO antenna is experimentally verified having size of 32 × 39 × 0.8 mm3. The main radiating element of MIMO setup comprises a Half-Cut Flower-Shaped (HCFS) resonator. A tree-shaped decoupling structure is use to enhance the isolation. The simulated operating band of the proposed 2-port UWB-MIMO antenna ranges from 2.3 to 2.68 GHz and 3.15 to 12.87 GHz which covers Bluetooth, Wi-Fi/WLAN, Wi-MAX and UWB) with inter-element isolation of more than 15 dB and 20 dB, respectively. The measured results are found in close agreement with simulated ones. Furthermore, the diversity parameters such as Envelope Correlation Coefficient (ECC), Channel Capacity Loss (CCL), Mean Effective Gain (MEG), Effective Diversity Gain (EDG) and Total Active Reflection Coefficient (TARC) have also been analysed to ensure its legitimacy for wireless applications. Moreover, the simulation S-parameters characteristic of the proposed 8-element antenna for wireless access point applications has also been showcased. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
