This contribution takes place in the field of antennas, with the development of broad-band systems: a circular array of six elements with separated outputs for the receiving part. In this paper, we present the design and the characterization of broad-band double ellipse array antenna. This special structure is chosen in order to obtain a good omnidirectional radiation pattern, enhance the gain and maximize the V/H polarization ratio. In comparison with the already existing antenna systems in the wireless market for similar purposes, the proposed antenna has considerably shown better performance which makes it competitive among other antenna models. For the design and optimization of antennas, we use CST MWS software. The antennas have been designed and successfully measured.展开更多

This antenna consists of two modified planar-monopole antenna elements with coplanar waveguides-fed printed on one side of the substrate. To enhance isolation and increase impedance bandwidth, a tree like stubs is placed on the ground plane at the 45°axis. The measured results show that the MIMO antenna operates from 2.3 GHz to 13 GHz, covering WLAN, WiMAX, and UWB. The low mutual coupling and low envelope correlation coefficient of less than 0.2 across the whole frequency band proved that this antenna was suitable for MIMO/diversity systems. Also, good performance of radiation patterns and the antenna’s compact size make it a good candidate for portable devices.展开更多
