Abstract
A compact, wideband dual-polarised antenna with high isolation is presented for in-band full-duplex applications. In order to achieve high isolation, an orthogonal tapered slot antenna (TSA) with symmetric configuration is designed and investigated to realize the proposed aperture-level coupling cancelation (ALCC) concept. An asymmetric top-loading patch is employed to lower the TSA's profile, resulting in a more compact structure and improved impedance matching. The proposed design with electrical dimensions of Φ 0.49λmin × 0.29λmin (λmin is the free-space wavelength at the lowest operational frequency) is fabricated, measured and analysed. The measurement results reveal that the proposed antenna exhibits a 10 dB return loss bandwidth of 73.5% (2.52–5.45 GHz), an isolation of ≥ 45.6 dB over the bandwidth from 3.4 to 5.45 GHz (46.3%) and peak isolation of 70.3 dB at 4.7 GHz.
