Abstract

The growing needs for high-data-rate and guaranteed communication in sub-6 GHz millimetre-wave 5G applications require miniaturized antennas with high performances. This study proposes a novel multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna based on the electromagnetic band gap (EBG) that can be used for 5G sub-6 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) spectrum applications. The intended antenna, which is mounted on a Rogers RT/droid 6010 high-dielectric substrate, is a low-profile, planar slotted antenna with a reduced size of 25 mm × 25 mm × 0.635 mm. The modified EBG structure, which achieves higher isolation, improved MIMO performance, and improved gain features in a compact form factor, is the main attribute of the suggested antenna. The antenna offers a maximum Channel Capacity (CC), a low Envelope Correlation Coefficient (ECC), and a decent Diversity Gain (DG). The computed fractional bandwidth (FBW) is 20.67%, and the realized peak gain that was attained conforms with the ISM band standard. The specific absorption rate (SAR) falls within safety constraints. The intended antenna ensures increased link budget to be efficient in 5G wireless communication systems.
