Abstract

A wide band, dual radiator Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna resonating at 2.4 GHz Industrial Scientific and Medical (ISM) band is designed and analysed for the body-centric wireless communication. Defected ground structure (DGS) is used to reduce the antenna size and to achieve wide bandwidth. Moreover, a decoupling slot is also etched in the ground plane to improve the port isolation. Proposed 2 × 1 array MIMO structure has occupied the volume of 90 × 40 × 0.8 mm3. Rectangular and cylindrical shaped multi-layered tissue models are used for simulation and pork tissue is used for the measurement of antenna performance. Broad 10-dB bandwidth of 1250/900 MHz, port isolation of 21/20 dB, gain of 5.53/5.07 dBi with, SAR value of 0.628/0.627 W/kg is achieved for the flat/deformed state of antenna. Results show that the proposed DGS-based antenna is reliable to operate on different tissue environment for body area network.
