Abstract

A compact dual-band(IEEE 802.11b: 2.4~2.5 GHz, 11a: 5.15~5.825 GHz) 2-channel MIMO antenna for PMP applications is presented. The proposed antenna is composed of a planar inverted F-shape antenna(PIFA) operating at 2 GHz band and a loop antenna operating at 5 GHz band. The proposed antenna is orthogonally arranged at the edge of the ground plane for polarization and pattern diversities with excellent isolation characteristics. The two PIFA antennas operating 2 GHz have connecting line($\lambda_g$/4) face to the feed point for high isolation and low correlation at 2 GHz band. The two loop antennas connected each other in the bottom side to improve the isolation at 5 GHz band. The proposed antenna has a sufficient gain in WLAN service band and is compact sized for the portable media player (PMP) applications.

본 논문에서는 PMP에 적용 가능한 소형의 듀얼 밴드(IEEE 802.11b: 2.4~2.5 GHz, 11a: 5.15~5.825 GHz) 이중 대역 MIMO 안테나를 제안하였다. 제안된 안테나는 2 GHz 대역에서 동작하는 PIFA(평면형 역 F형 안테나)와 5 GHz 대역에서 동작하는 루프(loop) 안테나로 구성되었다. 두 포트의 안테나는 각각 PIFA와 루프로 구성되어져 있으며, 상호 간의 격리도(isolation)를 높이기 위하여 편파 방향과 최대 방사 방향이 서로 수직이 되도록 그라운드 가장자리에 직교(orthogonal) 구조로 배치하였다. 또한, 상관도(correlation) 저감과 더욱 높은 격리도를 얻기 위해, 2 GHz 동작 주파수 대역에서 두 포트의 PIFA가 $\lambda_g$/4 길이의 선(connecting line)으로 연결되어 있으며, 5 GHz 동작 주파수 대역에서는 그라운드 뒷면에 두 루프 안테나 사이를 연결하는 사다리꼴의 평면(connecting plane)을 이용하였다. 듀얼 밴드 MIMO 안테나는 WLAN 대역에서 충분한 이득을 가지며, PMP(Portable Media Player)에 적용 가능한 소형의 안테나로 설계되었다.
