Abstract:

This paper introduces a compact asymmetric coplanar strip (ACS)-fed composite right/left handed (CRLH) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna for multiband operation. The ACS-fed MIMO antenna is designed using two triple band antenna elements, operating at 4.6 GHz, 4.9 GHz and 5.4 GHz with good matching (reflection coefficient is less than-20 dB). By using mushroom like electromagnetic bandgap structure, further mutual coupling isolation (better than 30 dB) is achieved. The overall MIMO antenna size is compact (46.5 � 26 mm 2 ). The MIMO antenna has less than 0.02 envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) and maximum than 9.98 dB diversity gain. The results are simulated using full wave simulations. � 2018 IEEE.
