Proposal of MIMO Ultra-Wide Band Antenna with Low Mutual Coupling

Abstract

In this paper, a new ultra-wide band (UWB) MIMO antenna is proposed. A MIMO antenna set consists of two single ultra-wide band antennas. This simple and compact MIMO antenna, which is designed to work from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz, has a broad bandwidth with the VSWR ≤ 2. In addition, MIMO antenna characteristics such as radiation pattern, maximal gain are thoroughly investigated.
