Abstract:

This study focuses on enhancing the Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) performance in Microstrip Patch Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna arrays, specifically comparing six-element arrays with single-element antennas. The objective is to optimize VSWR values for Microstrip Patch MIMO Arrays (MP-MIMO-A) to ensure efficient signal transmission in 5G wireless systems. Current methods of designing MIMO antenna arrays suffer from high VSWR values, resulting in poor impedance matching and reduced overall system efficiency. These challenges lead to signal losses and diminished performance in advanced communication systems, especially in 5G applications where high data rates and reliability are crucial. The proposed method utilizes a comprehensive VSWR Improvement Assessment framework tailored to Microstrip Patch MIMO Arrays. This approach focuses on analyzing and optimizing the antenna design for better impedance matching and reduced VSWR. It integrates advanced simulation tools and optimization algorithms to enhance the array configuration, leveraging techniques such as array element placement optimization and frequency tuning to minimize VSWR levels. By applying the proposed method, the design of MP-MIMO-A arrays for 5G systems can be significantly improved, leading to enhanced signal quality and efficiency. The framework addresses the existing challenges by systematically reducing VSWR, thus ensuring better power transfer and overall antenna performance. The findings reveal that the six-element MP-MIMO-A arrays outperform single-element antennas, achieving a substantial reduction in VSWR values, which in turn enhances the system's capability for 5G wireless communication, leading to improved data throughput and connectivity.
