Abstract | This paper presents a 4x4 MIMO filtenna aimed for use with UWB applications. The MIMO filtenna is simulated, fabricated and measured. Obtained simulation and measurement results agree well with each other and have been presented to validate the accuracy of the proposed structure. Measured passband is 2.96–11.56 GHz, with dual bandnotch at 3.5 GHz (S11 = -1.25 dB) and 6.05 GHz (S11 = -2.4 dB). Measured isolation is more than 20 dB between all individual elements of the MIMO filtenna. The behaviour of current within the filtenna at the bandnotch frequencies has been shown. Elements of the filtenna exhibit bi-directional radiation patterns in the E-plane and omnidirectional patterns in the H-plane. The gain and efficiency have also been presented; with the average values being 5.3 dBi and 90% respectively. The Envelope Correlation Coefficient has been calculated from both simulations and measurements; with the measured values being below 0.001 for the passband. |
