An array of printed dipole antennas for wireless local area network applications is designed and simulated using ads software. In MIMO system, numbers of antenna elements are used in different configuration. This paper presents the simulated results of printed dipole antennas in side by side 4‐element array, echelon and H‐shaped dipole array configurations. The designed antenna is characterized by measuring return loss, radiation pattern, directivity, and gain and also presented the simulated capacity results of different array configurations. The mutual coupling between the dipoles of different orientations is included to make simulation more realistic. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

“…The mg =4 open stub acts as a shorting circuit at the feed point. The printed dipole with the integrated balun features a broadband performance [2] ( 40%) and has found applications in wireless communications [3] and antenna arrays [4]. However, the printed dipole with an integrated balun whose feed point is fixed at its top (called the fixed integrated balun) has to be designed at the dipole's resonant resistance of 80 , hence requiring a 63-quarter wavelength transformer to match with 50- test equipment [2].…”

Abstract-A printed dipole with an integrated balun features a broad operating bandwidth. The feed point of conventional balun structures is fixed at the top of the integrated balun, which makes it difficult to match to a 50-feed. In this communication, we demonstrate that it is possible to directly match with the 50-feed by adjusting the position of the feed point of the integrated balun. The printed dipole with the hereby presented adjustable integrated balun maintains the broadband performance and exhibits flexibility for the matching to different impedance values, which is extremely important for the design of antenna arrays since the mutual coupling between antenna elements commonly changes the input impedance of each single element. An equivalent-circuit analysis is presented for the understanding of the mechanism of the impedance match. An eight-element linear antenna array is designed as a benchmarking topology for broadband wireless base stations.Index Terms-Antenna array, base station antenna, broadband antenna, integrated balun, printed dipole, wireless communications.
