Design of a mimo rectangular dielectric resonator antenna for LTE application

A Broadband Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) Rectangular Dielectric Resonator Antenna is design and implemented. The proposed antenna consists of two ports (Aperture coupled microstrip fed using slot and Coaxial-probe) and a limited ground plane extruded on the substrate. The overall size of pr...
