Abstract EN
This article presents design and simulation of a new compact four-element dual-band MIMO frequency reconfigurable antenna that can be reconfigured for WiMAX and LTE applications.
The antenna includes four elements at the same FR4 substrate with an optimized overall size of 65x65x1.6 mm3 and an optimized partial GND plane of 30x11.125 mm2.
The reconfiguration rate is between 2.41 and 3.99 GHz that can cover the WiMAX and LTE wireless devices by applying just one RF (PIN) switch to change the operating frequency.
The antenna operates on the two states of the PIN diode under its two states ON and OFF with (2.7 GHz, and 2.8 GHz) resonant frequencies respectively.
The proposed antenna produces acceptable simulation results for the MIMO system by achieving gain from (3-7.2) dBi, less than -14.5 dB coupling effect, less than 0.28 envelope correlation coefficient, and diversity gain range from This article presents design and simulation of a new compact four-element dual-band MIMO frequency reconfigurable antenna that can be reconfigured for WiMAX and LTE applications.
