ABSTRACT

We have presented two-port MIMO antenna designs with low-profile material. Two different MIMO antenna designs are prepared and investigated to observe their effect on the gain, bandwidth, etc. The designs are prepared based on metasurface concepts with one design having a circular ring metasurface design and second having circular disk metasurface design. The designs are showing broadband response covering frequency range of 1.85 GHz to 4.27 GHz. The bandwidth of 2.320 GHz is achieved for this metasurface MIMO antenna design. The gain and directivity results show that highest gain of 5.88 dB and directivity of 6.39 dB are achieved with circular ring metasurface MIMO antenna design. Both metasurface MIMO antenna designs are fabricated, and measured results are also provided to verify the simulation results. The broadband and high gain design are applicable for 5G communication, WiMAX and WLAN applications.
