Abstract

This study presents a four-element compact Multi-Input Multi-Output antenna with enhancedisolation for applications with three bands. The four-port antenna elements have hook-shapemultiband monopole elements with 50Ωmicrostrip feed lines and are placed such that they areperpendicular to one another to enhance the act of the MIMO system. Simulation and measurementconsequences demonstrate that the antenna operates at a consistent gain and radiation patternsat the major frequency bands of2.11−2.47GHz,3.14−3.54GHz, and5.15−5.85GHz withS11<−10dB. To verify the claimed MIMO antenna performance, data in the format of radiationpatterns, peak gain (4.9, 5.2, 5.8 dB), diversity gain (DG) (9.95, 9.92, 9.92 dB), envelope correlationcoefficient (ECC) (0.005, 0.003, 0.002), TRAC, channel capacity and MEG ratio are retrieved.These specifications of the suggested antenna make it a suitable candidate for WiMAX, Bluetooth,and WLAN uses. Additionally, the suggested antenna outperformed current work by providing asuperior balance of size, bandwidth, and several performance characteristics.
