摘要
This letter provides an effective solution to deal with the radar cross section (RCS) and mutual coupling of the multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) antenna simultaneously. A wideband reflective type polarization converter (PC) is designed and its strategic placement in between the antenna elements of the two-element MIMO antenna has been conceived to mitigate these two issues concurrently. The antenna elements of the proposed MIMO antenna are placed at a proximal distance of 0.088 λ from each other. The proposed MIMO architecture ensures a maximum coupling reduction of 46 dB compared to the conventional MIMO across 4.4–8 GHz. The PC surface reduces the reflection of copolarized waves and enhances cross-polarized reflection. A supercell formed by a unit cell of PC and its 90° rotated counterpart causes phase cancellation of cross- polarized reflected waves, which contributes to wideband RCS reduction by a maximum value of 7 dB. The alignment of PC cells in a column between the adjacent antenna elements causes a reduction in the mutual coupling due to introduction of an extra coupling path and cross-polarization conversion. A good agreement between the simulated and measured results validates this concept of the proposed MIMO design with low RCS and mutual coupling.
