Directivity Improvement of MIMO Array Antenna using Novel Eight Element Array Configuration
Аннотация
In this study, the Directivity of the Microstrip Patch MIMO Antenna is a Novel Eight element array configuration in comparison with its performance of a Single element patch antenna. Directivity improvement and Return loss measured for different frequencies and values are compared with a Single element patch antenna. Novel Eight element MIMO array antenna is designed and compared with a Single patch element antenna. In this work, there are two groups (Eight element patch & Single element patch) each consisting of 20 samples with pre-test power or G-power of 80%. The mean Return loss in the Novel eight element MIMO array antenna is -18.39 dB and in the Single element antenna is -15.21 dB. These results showed that the Novel eight element array exhibited a better Directivity improvement (4.483 dB) than the single element antenna (2.261 dB) with the two-tailed significance of (p < 0.05). The Directivity improvement is significantly better for a Novel eight element array antenna when compared with a single element patch antenna.
