초록

모노폴과 IFA(Inverted F Antenna)가 함께 동작하는 하이브리드 안테나를 이용한 MIMO(Multi Input Multi Output) 안테나를 설계한다. 안테나 공간을 줄이기 위하여 Vlade(Vertical lade)기법을 적용하며, 데이터통신을 위해 베어보드 상하단에 대각선으로 급전하는 MIMO 안테나를 설계한다. 설계를 위한 각 부분 길이를 변수로 하여 반사손실 특성의 변화를 나타낸다. LTE700, CDMA, GSM, DCS, PCS 및 WCDMA의 6중 주파수대역에서 동작하는 안테나를 설계하고 이를 구현한다. 구현된 안테나에 대한 반사손실 측정결과, VSWR 3:1 기준으로 설계대역 전체를 만족하였다. 또한 안테나에 대한 방사특성은 LTE700/CDMA/GSM 주파수대역에서 평균이득 -3.76 ~ -2.53dBi 및 42.06 ~ 55.84%의 효율, DCS/PCS/ WCDMA 주파수대역에서는 평균이득 -3.27 ~ -1.21dBi 및 47.08 ~ 75.6%의 효율을 보였다. MIMO특성 중 중요한 요소인 2안테나 간의 분리도는 전 밴드에서 -8.14 ~ -25.77dB로써 양호한 특성을 보였다.

A hybrid MIMO(Multi Input Multi Output) antenna which is operating both a monopole and a IFA(Inverted F Antenna) is designed. It's applied Vlade(Vertical lade) technique to reduce antenna space, and a diagonally fed MIMO antenna is designed on the bare board for the data communication. Return losses due to variables of antenna length are simulated for the design. Antenna for the hexa-frequency band of LTE700, CDMA, GSM, DCS, PCS and WCDMA is designed and implemented. This antenna is satisfied 3:1 VSWR over the whole design band by the measurement of return loss. And average gains and efficiencies were -3.67 ~ -2.53dBi and 42.06 ~ 55.84% for LTE700/CDMA/GSM frequency band, -3.27 ~ -1.21dBi and 47.08 ~ 75.6% for DCS/PCS/WCDMA frequency band. The isolation between 2 antenna that is one of important factors for the MIMO system was measured good performance as -8.14 ~ -25.77dB over the whole service band.
