Finding Optimal Total Active Reflection Coefficient and Realized Gain for Multiport Lossy Antennas

Miloslav Capek et al.

Summary: This study focuses on a numerically effective description of the total active reflection coefficient and realized gain for multiport antennas, taking into account material losses. The approach is based on operators represented in an entire-domain port-mode basis, with matrices of small dimensions. Optimal excitation and matching conditions are investigated, along with solving the combinatorial problem of optimal ports' placement and feeding synthesis. Numerical examples highlight the advantages of the proposed method, which can be easily implemented in existing electromagnetic simulators.

Capacity Bounds and Degrees of Freedom for MIMO Antennas Constrained by Q-Factor

Casimir Ehrenborg et al.

Summary: This study investigates the optimal spectral efficiency and number of independent channels for MIMO antennas in isotropic multipath channels under bandwidth requirements. By modeling the problem as a convex optimization problem and simulating antennas using method of moments, it is found that the solution is solely dependent on the eigenvalues of the antenna's energy modes. It is proposed that the number of energy modes below a given Q-factor can be used to estimate the degrees of freedom for that Q-factor.
