Reconfigurable MIMO Antenna for IoT Wireless Applications Controlled by Embedded System.

In this paper, a reconfigurable 2×2 and 4×4 MIMO antenna is designed for UWB X-band wireless applications. The proposed design uses square patch radiating electromagnetic energy and a novel ground structure and consists of a reconfigurable module enabling to set the operating mode using PIN diodes. The antenna allows rejecting 5 GHz WLAN and 7 GHz DSS interference by introducing “Γ-T” shape type stubs embedded on the radiating patch. The proposed design has reconfigurable features by using RF PIN diodes switch controlled by embedded module. Analysis of the proposed structure’s performance shows a good agreement between simulated results and actual outcomes measured in real-worlds scenarios. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
