Abstract: | < -10 dB of 200 MHz, ranging from 5.77 GHz to 5.97 GHz, fully covering the spectrum guided by the IEEE 802.11p standard. A physical prototype is fabricated and placed on a car roof to assess the congruency between measured and simulated results. The MIMO antenna exhibits exceptional diversity properties, such as enhanced isolation (>28 dB) between its individual elements, a diversity gain (DG) close to the ideal value of 10 dB (9.99 dB), peak realized gain of 6.5 dBi, an ECC below 0.001, and a beam coverage area of 180° in azimuthal and elevation plane by dynamic port switching. Thus, the proposed MIMO antenna module is a considerable candidate for future V2X communication paradigms.
