Triple band self-decoupled MIMO antenna pair for 5G communication

Abstract A two port multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna with self-isolation is proposed for the application of fifth generation (5G) mobile phones. In this antenna, feeding ports that are inherently isolated across a bandwidth without the need for extra decoupling components directly excite the MIMO antenna. An approach involving the creation of common and differential modes utilizes a mode-cancellation technique to comprehensively understand the self-decoupling mechanism on a physical level. The proposed self-decoupled antenna pair exhibits about 22 dB isolation across the triple band 2.58 GHz to 2.84 GHz, 3.4 GHz to 3.9 GHz and 4.3 GHz to 4.6 GHz, respectively. According to the experimental findings, the proposed MIMO system may offer better than 22 dB isolation across all ports and a respectable level of overall gain 1.9 dBi, 3.77 dBi and 2.9 dBi across 2.58 GHz to 2.84 GHz, 3.4 GHz to 3.9 GHz and 4.3 GHz to 4.6 GHz. A suggested design method, with its advantages of self-decoupling, simple structure, high efficiency and triple band demonstrates amazing upcoming 5G highly integrated MIMO antennas for 5G devices.
