TL;DR: In this article, a 10 element multiple input multi output (MIMO)/Diversity antenna system is considered to work in Sub-6 GHz frequency range, where the peak value of envelope correlation coefficient is 0.06 and calculated value of ergodic channel capacity is found to be greater than 41bps/Hz.
Abstract: A 10 element multiple input multi output (MIMO)/Diversity antenna system is considered to work in Sub-6 GHz frequency range. The proposed design can work in long term evolution (LTE) band 42(3.4-3.6 GHz), LTE band 43(3.6-3.8 GHz) and LTE band 46(5.15-5.925 GHz). The proposed design consists of 10 identical and highly isolated T-shaped slot antennas fed with T-shaped lines. All three bands have the return loss values ( 83%) in free space. The peak value of envelope correlation coefficient is 0.06 and the calculated value of ergodic channel capacity is found to be greater than 41bps/Hz in all the bands.The effect of hand grip as well as the presence of battery and LCD screen is investigated. Simulated results are validated via fabrication and measurement of the proposed design.

TL;DR: In this article, a transmission line switch allows a single output line (3) to be switched to one of two or more input lines (1, 2) to which it is permanently connected at a common junction (4).
Abstract: A transmission line switch allows a single output line (3) to be switched to one of two or more input lines (1,2) to which it is permanently connected at a common junction (4). Each input line (1,2) has an associated amplifier stage (10) which can be biased in a normal high gain (`on`) state, or in an isolation (`off`) state. Suitable biasing in the `off` state ensures that the amplifier stage output presents a low impedance to its own input line, the length (L) of which is chosen to reflect a high impedance at the junction (4) with the other lines. Correct design enables the return loss and insertion loss of the `on` path to be kept to low values while simultaneously offering a high insertion loss to the `off` path signals.

TL;DR: In this article, a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) antenna with improved isolation using an interdigital split ring resonator (SRR) is proposed. But the performance of the proposed antenna is limited.
Abstract: A multi-input multi-output (MIMO) antenna with improved isolation using an interdigital split ring resonator (SRR) is proposed. The necessary impedance bandwidth is obtained by utilizing the coupling between the meander strip and an inverted L strip. Using interdigital SRR, a negative permeability was generated, while achieving improved isolation between the two radiating elements. The fabricated antenna satisfies the 10 dB return loss in the long-term evolution (LTE) band 40 from 2.3 GHz to 2.4 GHz. The measured peak gains of the two elements were 2.0 dBi and 1.3 dBi. The measured envelope correlation coefficient was less than 0.16 over the frequency band of interest.

TL;DR: In this paper, the dimensions of the transformer were calculated using a homogeneous waveguide model for the partially loaded sections, and the characteristics of this model were found with perturbation theory.
Abstract: This paper presents closed-form expressions for the design of a quarter-wave transition-matching transformer. This structure takes the form of a notch or protrusion cut in the finline substrate at the waveguide-to-finline interface. The dimensions of the transformer are calculated using a homogeneous waveguide model for the partially loaded sections. The characteristics of this model are found with perturbation theory. Several transformers were designed and measured. A 5-dB improvement in return loss over a full waveguide band is typical.

TL;DR: This paper reports on the demonstration of a voltage switchable barium strontium titanate solidly mounted resonator filter at 6 GHz.
Abstract: This paper reports on the modeling, fabrication, and experimental results of a voltage switchable barium strontium titanate solidly mounted resonator filter at 6 GHz. The filter insertion loss was measured to be -4.26 dB and the return loss to be -13.5 dB. The 3-dB bandwidth was measured to be 72 MHz and the quality factor was calculated to be 83. The data were collected at a dc bias voltage of 10 V. Temperature data were also collected, and the filter demonstrated a 0.71-dB increase in insertion loss and a 7-MHz decrease in center frequency with increase in temperature.
