2‐bit polarisation agile antenna with high port decoupling

Abstract: A practical method to achieve both decoupling and six polarisation states by employing the mode-based approach for a four-element antenna is presented. The eigenmode theory as well as a practical implementation scheme are presented. The resulting approach can operate with vertical, horizontal, slant +45°, slant −45°, right-hand circular polarisation, or left-hand circular polarisation. A prototype has been manufactured and measured results show good agreement with simulations.

“…Hence, the polarization vectors at polarization reconfigurable antenna elements impact constructively or destructively the MIMO channel capacity itself, even though SVD-based precoding/postcoding reaches the MIMO channel capacity for the given full CSIR/CSIT. The jth Tx polarization-agile antenna affects the jth column in (1); thus, the sum of squared singular values in (10) can be written as…”

“…In the following we refer to the mode-based technique applied to a four-element antenna with circular symmetry [3]. The scattering matrix Sa of such antenna features circulant structure thus it is completely characterized by S11, S12, and S13.…”

“…The most effective schemes aimed to reduce both mutual coupling and spatial correlation in physically constrained antenna systems are polarization and pattern diversity. Recently, these diversity schemes have been separately implemented by means of the mode-based technique [3]- [4]. This technique allows to diagonalize the scattering matrix of a multi-element antenna with circular symmetry by cascading a mode decomposition network (MDN) to the antenna ports.…”

“…In contrast to the above literature, in [16] we exploited the eigenmode decomposition technique to achieve polarization diversity without the use of matching networks allowing reduction implementation complexity and enabling greater operating bandwidth. To generalize this work, in [17] we have proposed an antenna based on a new eigenmode design procedure which can achieve both polarization and pattern diversity without the use of matching networks.…”
