Abstract

A Design and Simulation of 4 element Multiple Input Multiple output (MIMO) Microstrip Patch Antenna that has 4 ports, been designed and implemented. The proposed antenna consists of four ports with all the four patches operates at LTE and WLAN frequencies 1.8GHz, 2.8GHz, 3.3 GHz. The antenna is fabricated on an inexpensive FR4 material of a dielectric constant of ε = 4.4, with thickness of substrate that is 1.6 mm and the thickness of patch is 0.035 mm. The measured results represents that the proposed antenna obtained a reasonable bandwidth for LTE and WLAN applications defined by return loss less than -10dB. And the S Parameters of antenna and Voltage Standing Wave Ratio of an antenna are simulated and measured. In this project, structure of the four ports MIMO antenna has been designed to have broad bandwidth. Since MIMO antenna having good gain and directivity can be achieved. The simulation is carried out by using CST microwave studio program. The simulation results show improvement in VSWR, S- Parameter and radiation pattern when we increase the number of patches.
