Abstract

Antenna is a backbone of communication system, and with the advent of technology, numerous innovations have been made to advance antenna development. An antenna, functioning as a smart device, transmits and receives signals while also working as a transducer. Wireless communication requires a useful device for transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves. Wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) is a specific type of wireless communication technology used to transmit data over the internet network. The bandwidth and signal coverage of Wi-Fi have significant limitations. Therefore, an antenna is crucial for improving signal reception to address this issue. This article presents the designing and developing of a cost-effective circularly polarized (CP) 2×2 multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna customized for Wi-Fi applications. The application of a notched circular patch antenna serves to achieve circular polarization. The radius of the circular patch is 0.26 λ, and the proposed MIMO antenna effectively showcases CP, characterized by an axial ratio (AR) of 1 dB at 5 GHz and an impressive bandwidth spanning 0.2 GHz (4.9-5.1 GHz). Additionally, the antenna is designed to achieve a high-isolation 2×2 MIMO setup, ensuring antenna isolation surpassing 20 dB. By utilizing the flame retardant (FR4) substrate, presented MIMO antenna strikes a balance between cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency for its intended application, and directional radiation patterns are well-aligned within the desired frequency range.
