Speech Title: Decoupling for MIMO antennas

Abstract:
MIMO is the key technology of 5G mobile communications. In MIMO arrays, a lot of antenna elements are tightly installed with a common reflector and a radome, resulting in strong coupling between the elements. The coupling deteriorates the matching and isolation of antennas, and also affects the radiation patterns. In this talk, a number of decoupling principles and methods are introduced including several methods proposed by Prof Qing-Xin Chu’s group in South China University of Technology.
