| Abstract | ||
| This paper presents the design and performance analysis of a compact dual-band multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna system operating at 28 GHz and 38 GHz, targeting 5G and IoT millimeter-wave (mmWave) applications. To address common challenges such as mutual coupling and low gain in compact MIMO configurations, the proposed antenna integrates a Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) substrate which effectively enhancing gain and inter-element isolation. The antenna is designed on a low-cost FR-4 substrate, chosen for its availability and cost-effectiveness, making the solution practical for real-world implementations. Full-wave simulations are conducted using CST Microwave Studio, evaluating the antenna’s performance in terms of S-parameters, gain, isolation, envelope correlation coefficient (ECC), and diversity gain (DG). The results demonstrate excellent isolation, wide impedance bandwidth, and high gain across both bands of operating frequencies. The proposed design is compact, efficient, and well-suited for integration into modern 5G communication systems such as smartphones, wearable devices, and IoT platforms. | ||
