Mimo Antenna For Fifth Generation Mm-Wave Applications: A Bibliometric Survey, Rajeshwari R. Malekar, Laxmikant K. Shevada, Hema D. Raut, Amruta S. Dixit, Sumit Kumar

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Nowadays most discussed technology is mm-wave and 5G communication. The requirement of 5G technology is high bandwidth, high data rate, and low latency. To fulfil these requirements for the current growth in mobile communication multiple input multiple output antenna is used. This bibliometric paper throws light on the various methods used to improve mutual coupling between multiple antennas. Various mutual coupling reduction techniques that are used in MIMO antennas like Dielectric resonator antenna, Electromagnetic Bandgap Structure, Neutralization lines, Defected Ground Structures, Metamaterial, etc. are explained. Scopus database is used for this bibliometric review on mm-wave MIMO 5G technology from the …


Applying Power Dividers To Decoupling Of Mimo Antennas With Wideband, Dual-Band Or Adjacent-Band Operations, Min Li, Lijun Jiang, Kwan Lawrence Yeung Dec 2020

Applying Power Dividers To Decoupling Of Mimo Antennas With Wideband, Dual-Band Or Adjacent-Band Operations, Min Li, Lijun Jiang, Kwan Lawrence Yeung

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

This paper presents a novel decoupling method of applying power dividers to isolation enhancement of multiple-input multiple-output antennas with wideband, dual-band, or adjacent-band operations. The decoupling structure consists of the power dividers, transmission lines, and reactive components. Three benchmarks are used to elaborate on the design procedure and demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method. Results show that this method offers good impedance matching and high port isolation at the designated frequencies.


A Novel Dual-Band Decoupling Technique, Min Li, Jamal Muhammad Yasir, Kwan Lawrence Yeung, Lijun Jiang Oct 2020

A Novel Dual-Band Decoupling Technique, Min Li, Jamal Muhammad Yasir, Kwan Lawrence Yeung, Lijun Jiang

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

This article presents a novel dual-band decoupling network (DN) to increase the isolation between two antennas. It is composed of two dual-band Wilkinson power dividers, four additional transmission lines (TLs), and two reactive components. The decoupling formulas are derived from systematic design procedures. Hence, the design parameters of the power divider, lengths of TLs, and reactance of reactive components can be precisely determined to realize high port isolation. Two benchmarks of the two-element symmetric and asymmetric monopole arrays are used to elaborate the design procedure and demonstrate the advantages of proposed DN. Results show that the proposed DN can offer …


A Novel Wideband Decoupling Network For Two Antennas Based On The Wilkinson Power Divider, Min Li, Lijun Jiang, Kwan Lawrence Yeung Jul 2020

A Novel Wideband Decoupling Network For Two Antennas Based On The Wilkinson Power Divider, Min Li, Lijun Jiang, Kwan Lawrence Yeung

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In this article, a wideband decoupling network (DN) is presented based on the Wilkinson power divider (WPD). The DN is composed of 2 two-way unequal WPDs, three transmission lines (TLs), and two reactive components. Two techniques are introduced for the wideband performance: 1) by using the WPD with high output isolation, the antenna matching becomes independent of antenna decoupling. So, the decoupled antennas with the proposed DN could perform broad impedance bandwidths without using matching networks and 2) the DN is designed to minimize antennas' coupling coefficients at two frequencies, which collectively contribute to a broader decoupling bandwidth. In addition, …


A General And Systematic Method To Design Neutralization Lines For Isolation Enhancement In Mimo Antenna Arrays, Min Li, Lijun Jiang, Kwan Lawrence Yeung Jun 2020

A General And Systematic Method To Design Neutralization Lines For Isolation Enhancement In Mimo Antenna Arrays, Min Li, Lijun Jiang, Kwan Lawrence Yeung

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A general and systematic approach is the first time proposed in this paper to design the neutralization line (NL) for isolation enhancement in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna arrays. Each NL consists of a metal strip and a reactive component attached at its middle position. It is connected with every two antenna radiators to generate an additional coupling path against the original antenna coupling for isolation enhancement. A general network model that leads to a systematic design procedure is developed to meet the required isolation criteria. Three practical examples are presented and used to verify the proposed NL-based decoupling technique (DT). …


A Miniaturized Dual-Band Dual-Polarized Band-Notched Slot Antenna Array With High Isolation For Base Station Applications, Min Li, Rong Wang, Jamal Muhammad Yasir, Lijun Jiang Feb 2020

A Miniaturized Dual-Band Dual-Polarized Band-Notched Slot Antenna Array With High Isolation For Base Station Applications, Min Li, Rong Wang, Jamal Muhammad Yasir, Lijun Jiang

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In this article, a miniaturized dual-band dual-polarized slot antenna array is proposed for base station applications. It consists of two closely located $1\times 4$ subarrays for the digital cellular system (DCS) and wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) operations. The band-notched slot antenna (BNSA) is designed and adopted as the subarray element with radiation-suppression characteristic at notch frequencies. The notch frequency for one subarray is designed at the center operating frequency of the other subarray. As a result, the radiation from DCS subarray could be effectively suppressed within the WCDMA band and vice versa, resulting in high isolation between two …
