Design and Analysis of a 4-element Wideband MIMO Antenna for THz Applications
In this work, initially a rectangular microstrip patch antenna measuring (94.8 × 110 × 10) µm3 with a polyamide substrate has been analyzed and developed. The antenna has a bandwidth of 170 GHz (1.98 - 2.15 THz) and is tuned to resonate at a frequency of 2.08 THz. Its return loss is -26.733 dB, radiation efficiency is 92<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">%</sup>, and maximum gain is 6.35 dB. In addition, the MIMO technology has been implemented to improve performance. Its bandwidth is 210 GHz (1.98-2.19 THz), and it offers a reflection coefficient of -37.75 dB, a radiation efficiency of 95%, and a peak gain of 6.01 dB. The substrate of the four-element MIMO antenna measures (154.8<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">x</sup>170<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">x</sup>10) µm3. The HFSS platform has been used to perform the modelling and simulation.
