Abstract

A sixteen-port circularly polarized (CP) ultrawideband (UWB) multiple-input−multiple-output (MIMO) belt antenna is designed and developed for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications. The proposed antenna comprises sixteen modified octagon-like ring antenna elements with a common ground. These antenna elements are designed on leather material and can be worn as a belt. Each antenna element contains a microstrip line feed and a modified octagon-like open-ended ring radiator to generate circular polarization. The belt antenna provides an impedance bandwidth (S₁₁ ≤ −10 dB) of 3.08–11 GHz (112.5%) and a 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth (ARBW) of 4.7–7.07 GHz (40.27%). The envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) amongst the resonating elements is <0.003. Additionally, the bending analysis and specific absorption rate (SAR) of the presented antenna are examined. The overall size of the belt antenna is 30 mm × 574 mm × 1 mm. The designed belt antenna is suitable for WBAN applications due to its leather material, good on-body performance, and nearly identical simulated and experimental results.

用于 WBAN 应用的具有极化分集功能的圆极化十六端口柔性 UWB MIMO 天线

设计并开发了一种十六端口圆极化（CP）超宽带（UWB）多输入多输出（MIMO）腰带天线，用于无线体域网（WBAN）应用。拟议的天线由十六个改进的八角形环状天线元件组成，具有公共接地。这些天线元件设计在皮革材料上，可作为腰带佩戴。每个天线元件都包含一个微带线馈线和一个改进的八角形开口环形辐射器，以产生圆极化。腰带天线的阻抗带宽（S11 ≤ -10 dB）为 3.08-11 GHz（112.5%），3 dB 轴向比带宽（ARBW）为 4.7-7.07 GHz（40.27%）。谐振元件之间的包络相关系数（ECC）为 0.003。此外，还对所介绍天线的弯曲分析和比吸收率（SAR）进行了研究。腰带天线的整体尺寸为 30 mm × 574 mm × 1 mm。所设计的腰带天线采用皮革材料，具有良好的贴身性能，模拟结果与实验结果几乎完全一致，因此适用于 WBAN 应用。
