Abstract
Herein, a Conductor Backed Co-Planar Waveguide fed, compact, slotted Multiple–Input–Multiple–Output or MIMO antenna having Super Wideband (SWB) response and tunable band-notching feature is presented. In addition, an improved method for cut-off frequency prediction of the antenna is formulated. A super wide frequency response from 01.21 to 34.0 GHz and notches at Wireless Local Area Networks or WLAN bands (04.92–05.83 GHz) and Worldwide Inter-operability for Microwave Access or WiMAX bands (03.30 GHz–03.70 GHz) are obtained. By fine tuning the dimensions of the Split Ring Resonator Structure introduced in the radiating element, band-notched characteristics centered at 05.50 GHz WLAN band is obtained. A second band notch having centre frequency at 03.50 GHz for the WiMAX band is obtained by the introduction of a Spiral Microstrip Defected Structure in the feeding segment. The antenna is 20 × 36 × 1 mm3 in dimension. Acceptable gain all through the functional bandwidth, excepting the notched bands makes the MIMO antenna a novel contender for SWB operations particularly for Wireless Personal Communications.
