Towards Compact and Frequency-Tunable Antenna Solutions for MIMO Transmission With a Single RF Chain

Abstract: Abstract-Recently, a technique called beam-space MIMO has been demonstrated as an effective approach for transmitting multiple signals while using a single RF-chain. In this work, we present novel design considerations and a compact antenna solution to stimulate the deployment of beam-space MIMO in future wireless applications. Targeting integration in small wireless devices, the novel antenna is made of a single integrated radiator rather than an array of physically-separated dipoles. It also drastically sim… Show more

“…Moreover, an acceptable level of the total efficiency (product of radiation and matching efficiencies) at the active port is required. Optimum MIMO operation of the antenna system in terms of the power imbalance ratio and/or the total efficiency can be achieved by optimizing either the reactive loads [4] or the three-port radiator [6]. In summary, the performance of a beam-space MIMO antenna can be examined in terms of four key characteristics:…”

“…As radiation pattern reconfiguration is typically achieved by changing the impedance of variable loads embedded in the antenna structure, e.g., [2]- [4], successful data multiplexing in beam-space MIMO requires finding and realizing the correct impedance values. These impedance values not only depend on the symbols to be multiplexed, but are also very dependent on how the basis patterns for the pattern decomposition are defined.…”

“…For the realization of such load the use of passive-only components is preferred, as the complexity and stability concerns of active loads offset the benefits. The most advanced beam-space MIMO antenna demonstrated today only supports BPSK modulation [3], [4].…”
