Abstract
In this paper, a rectangular-shaped wideband dielectric resonator
Graphene inspired electronic band gap (EBG) based complementary split
ring resonator (CSRR) loaded miniaturized THz MIMO antenna is designed
having a dimension of 56×56×3.6μm3 is designed on a Roggers RO3035
substrate with a relative permittivity of 3.6 and loss tangent 0.0015.
This antenna works in the range of 6.0THz-12.5THz (70.76%) with a peak
gain of 7.68 dBi. This composite DRA materials having Silicon (εr =
11.1) based cylindrical dielectric and cylindrical Graphene disk to be
stacked on rectangular radiated antenna having height of 13.5µm and
0.2µm to improve the impedance bandwidth as well as gain of the antenna
from 5.24dBi to 7.68dBi. Firstly single-element gold plated rectangular
shaped antenna is transformed into a two-element MIMO antenna with
mushroom-shaped EBG structure is deployed for improving the isolation
between two antenna elements as well as to improve the front-to-back
ratio (FBR). CSRR is loaded to obtained band notch characteristics for
avoiding the interference between near wireless devices in the span of
10.6-10.8THz. Graphene disk having 3µm height put on Silicon (εr = 11.1)
based cylindrical DRA provides high gain and improved the impedance
bandwidth for achieving wide bandwidth from 6.0THz-12.5THz. The proposed
MIMO Antenna performance has been judged by antenna parameters like
gain, return loss, isolation between two antenna elements, diversity
parameters like ECC, DG, TARC, Mean Effective Gain (MEG), Channel
Capacity Loss (CCL) and found proposed DRA-MIMO antenna suitable for
wide band nano/optical communication in 6G for IoT and bio-medical
sensing application.
