Abstract [en]

Antennas are widely used in our modern society and find their use in applications such as; point-to-point communication, radar, positioning etc. With a large bandwidth of 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz and a low power consumption, the ultra-wideband technology has great potential in the named applications. The multiple input and multiple output technology can help to enhance the data throughput as well as overcome channel fading in a scattering environment. Due to the general demand of higher data rates and quality in wireless communication, it can be argued why the two technologies should be combined. This work was therefore aimed to design a compact ultrawideband multiple input and multiple output antenna with enhanced port isolation. With the standpoint of a planar antenna, four elements with parasitic decouplers were placed orthogonally to each other, which enhanced the spatial diversity and by so also the port isolation of theantenna. Furthermore, the size of the antenna was 53 x 53 x 0.8 mm. The antenna was manufactured and the associated scattering parameters and antenna gain were measured. Apart from the manufactured antenna, the simulated did fully satisfy the ultra-wideband requirements. With known manufacturing errors, the manufactured antenna still exhibited similar characteristics as the simulated, hence the concrete and verifiable goals were fulfilled. Without excessive design complexities, this work has also shown thepotential of a relatively simple antenna design. Additionally, this work has also clarified commonly existing misconceptions regarding multiple input and multiple output antennas. By so, the overall goals were also fulfilled

Abstract [sv]

Antenner är utbrett använda i dagens samhälle och finner användning i applikationer så som; punkt-till-punkt kommunikation, radar, positionering etc. Med en stor bandbredd på 3,1 GHz till 10,6 GHz och en låg effektförbrukning har ultrabredbandstekniken stor potential i de nämnda applikationerna. Tekniken multiple input and multiple output kan hjälpa till att förbättra datagenomströmningen samt övervinna kanaldämpning i en reflektiv miljö. På grund av det allmänna kravet på högre datahastigheter och kvalitet i trådlös kommunikation, kan det argumenteras varför de två teknologierna bör kombineras. Därför syftade detta arbete till att designa en kompakt ultrabredbandig multiple input and multiple output antenn med förbättrad portisolering. Med utgångspunkten av en plan antenn placerades fyra element med parasitiska strukturer ortogonalt mot varandra, vilket förbättrade den rumsliga mångfalden och därmed också antennens portisolering. Vidare var antennens storlek 53 x 53 x 0,8 mm. Antennen tillverkades och tillhörande Sparametrar och antennvinst mättes. Bortsett från den tillverkade antennen så uppfyllde den simulerade kraven för ultrabredbandighet. Trots kända tillverkningsfel uppvisade den tillverkade antennen liknande karakteristik som den simulerade, varvid de konkreta samt verifierbara målen uppfylldes. Utan överdriven designkomplexitet har detta arbete också visat potentialen hos en relativt enkel antenndesign. Detta arbete har också klargjort vanliga missuppfattningar gällande multiple input and multiple output antenner. Därmed uppfylldes också de övergripande målen
