Abstract

In this review paper provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna designs for 5G smartphones. There are various antenna configurations that are discussed along with benefit and limitations. The paper also examines key challenges such as antenna mutual coupling, isolation and the size constraints inherent in smartphones. Furthermore, the impact of MIMO antenna design on 5G smartphone performance characteristics such as gain, radiation efficiency and spatial multiplexing capability is also analyzed. Finally, future research directions and potential innovations in MIMO antenna technology for 5G smartphones are identified to address emerging requirements and opportunities in next-generation wireless communication systems. The comprehensive comparison of different MIMO antenna performance is also given.
