The proposed design contains four similar truncated\u2013semi-elliptical\u2013self-complementary (TSESC) radiating patches, which are excited through tapered CPW feed lines. A complementary slot matching the radiating patch is introduced in the ground plane of the truncated semi-elliptical antenna element to obtain SWB. The designed MIMO\/diversity antenna displays a bandwidth ratio of 31:1 and impedance bandwidth (|S11| \u2264 \u2212 10 dB) of 1.3\u201340 GHz. In addition, a complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR) is implanted in the resonating patch to eliminate WLAN (5.5 GHz) and X-band (8.5 GHz) signals from SWB. Further, an L-shaped slit is used to remove Wi-MAX (3.5 GHz) band interferences. The MIMO antenna prototype is fabricated, and a good agreement is achieved between the simulated and experimental outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20030624","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,22]],"date-time":"2020-01-22T11:17:57Z","timestamp":1579691877000},"page":"624","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":36,"title":["Design of Quad-Port MIMO\/Diversity Antenna with Triple-Band Elimination Characteristics for Super-Wideband Applications"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Pawan","family":"Kumar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering, School of Engineering, Gautam Buddha University, Greater Noida 201308, India"}]},{"given":"Shabana","family":"Urooj","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering, College of Engineering, Princess Nourah Bint Abdulrahman University, Riyadh 84428, Saudi Arabia"}]},{"given":"Fadwa","family":"Alrowais","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Sciences, College of Computer and Information Sciences, Princess Nourah Bint Abdulrahman University, Riyadh 84428, Saudi Arabia"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"141241","DOI":"10.1109\/ACCESS.2019.2943655","article-title":"Design techniques of super-wideband antenna\u2013existing and future prospective","volume":"7","author":"Balani","year":"2019","journal-title":"IEEE Access"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"183","DOI":"10.1109\/ACCESS.2018.2885248","article-title":"Compact UWB antenna with integrated triple notch bands for WBAN applications","volume":"7","author":"Doddipalli","year":"2019","journal-title":"IEEE Access"},{"key":"ref_3","unstructured":"Federal Communications Commission (2002).
