Abstract

For 5G communication, this research suggests a small, broad band, 4-port multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna with an impedance bandwidth of 2.0 GHz (or 3.0-5.0 GHz). The n77, n78, and n79 bands are covered. The single antenna is realized by inserting the stubs and creating the ‘HI’ slot on the rectangle patch with the defect in the ground plane, using FR-4 substrate. Next, four MIMO antennas are built utilizing the reference antenna. Due to mutual interaction, implementing MIMO systems presents a substantial challenge: achieving good isolation between antenna parts in the confined space. To increase isolation with decoupling procedures, the four antennas are placed orthogonally to one another. Because the antennas are positioned orthogonally, the MIMO antenna has an isolation of 28.0 dB. The diversity gains (DG) and envelop correlation coefficient (ECC) are used to analyze the recommended antenna's diversity performance characteristics, and the results show that the values are 9.99 dB and 0.0003, respectively. The simulated S-parameters have been compared with orthogonal and adjacent positions of quad port MIMO antenna. Anritsu MS2037C VNA is used to measure the parameters, and HFSS software is used to simulate it.
