“…Table 1 presents a comparison of decoupling circuit approach types, antenna's dimension operating frequency band, radiating frequency ( f 0 ), peak‐to‐peak isolation improvement, and isolation achieved throughout the operating band. The works in References 11,12,14,17–20 require a large structure as compared to the proposed work. Besides, the work in Reference 15 is compact but operates for single‐band operation only.…”

This article offers a new decoupling circuit for isolation enhancement to decouple the dual‐band multiple‐input‐multiple‐output (MIMO) antenna in a compact dimension. In the design, a novel dual‐band vias‐based stub‐loaded multipath decoupling circuit is used which offers multipath decoupling using admittance parameters of the structure to enhance isolation. The vias position transforms the stub's behavior into a mix of inductive and capacitive behavior, and its diameter variation aids in isolation and frequency fine‐tuning. The proposed multipath decoupling circuit helps to achieve good isolation between the antenna element using a hybrid coupling. The projected MIMO antenna radiates at 2.29–2.51 GHz (Wi‐Fi) and 5.74–5.89 GHz (WLAN) bands simultaneously to validate the proposed decoupling circuit's effectiveness and demonstrate the design procedure. The decoupling circuit helps obtain the isolation more significant than 20 dB in each band than the initial 11 dB in the Wi‐Fi band and 14 dB in the WLAN band. Moreover, the proposed decoupling scheme can be helpful for the redesign of other multi‐band MIMO antennas applications. The excellent diversity performance, which makes this a suitable contender for advanced technological systems.

This paper proposes a novel and efficient design technique to achieve multifrequency impedance matching. The matching network is mainly constructed based on fragment discrete structure, which consists of regularly distributed metallic microstrip stubs, where some of them are connected whereas others are not. Different designs are generated by determining the interconnections between each two stubs. To facilitate the design procedure, a theory based on port impedance substitution is rigorously developed to calculate the resulted performance (reflection coefficient) of each design. Finally, the optimal design is obtained by using the derived formulas and genetic algorithm. The full optimization procedure is totally free of electromagnetic (EM) simulation and is quite timesaving. Three different examples of mismatched frequency-varying complex load are adopted to illustrate the steps and functionality of the proposed method. The accuracy of the proposed fast-calculation method is also verified by EM simulation and experimental results.

A common design solution of wideband filtering antennas inspired by the synthesis of a flat‐top gain curve is proposed by using mutual coupling effects. The realization of a frequency‐varied flat‐top gain curve based on specially designed subarrays is analyzed. Analysis results conclude a design process of generating filtering response based on shorting pins and parasitic structures. A single‐layer rectangle patch array loaded with parasitic shorted patches is designed and analyzed for the validation. The proposed antenna possesses an impedance bandwidth of 4.95–6.05 GHz and a peak realized gain of 11.2 dBi. Besides, the design has its out‐of‐band rejection levels higher than 15 dB.
