Dual band high gain circularly polarized frequency tunable silicon-graphene based MIMO antenna for THz wireless applications

The two-port aperture linked silicon-graphene radiator in THz regime is investigated in this study. The primary characteristics of the radiator design are as follows: (i) a perturbed circular aperture that offers two working spectrums, 2.85-3.58 THz and 2.31-2.45 THz, with the support of a circular E-field within the two operating bands; (ii) an aperture mirror arrangement that enhances polarization diversity and raises the isolation level to over 25 dB; and (iii) a graphene layer over the ceramic that allows for tunability in the entire working band as well as a circularly polarized frequency range. The broadsided radiation pattern is produced by the dual hybrid mode, or HEM11 delta and HEM12 delta. A metallic reflector positioned underneath the radiator enhances the dual working spectrum's gain value, or around 7.5 dBi. With the aid of CST-MWS software, the final results are confirmed. The developed radiator may be used for a variety of wireless applications in the THz domain thanks to its stable far-field pattern and strong diversity parameter values.
