Enhanced Isolation Quad-Port MIMO Antenna Using Chip Resistors and Cross-Shaped Element for 6G Upper-mid Band Applications
摘要
The rapid development of wireless communication towards technology demands compact, high isolation for MIMO antennas to obtain enhanced link reliability. Existing antenna design faces various challenges like mutual coupling, low isolation and gain. A compact quad port MIMO antenna is designed for upper mid-band 6G application, and it is experimentally validated. The novelty of the design lies in the integrated use of diamond-shaped slots for dual-band excitation, L-shaped decoupling stubs loaded with chip resistors for mutual coupling suppression. To mitigate surface wave effects, a cross-shaped defected ground structure (Cr-DGS) is used, and antenna parameters are optimized by using the enhanced fire hawk optimization (EFHO) algorithm. The antenna is designed with dimensions of height, width, and thickness
