Design of F shaped MIMO antenna for WIMAX Applications

Abstract

The proposed antenna can be used for wi max applications. The length and width of the antenna is 80mm x 45mm with FR4 substrate. It is designed in such a way that an additional F slot is introduced in the radiating element, to reduce the antenna size in lower band. All the simulations are done by mentor graphics IE3D. MIMO antenna can achieve the required antenna necessity of wireless communication such as small size, lower return loss, high gain, better impedance matching, easy to design and low cost.
