Enhancing the capacity of MIMO systems via modified building using Frequency Selective wallpapers

In this paper, the design of a Double Square Loop Frequency Selective Surface (DSL FSS) is presented. The DSL FSS is designed to band-stop 2.4 GHz and 5.5 GHz and to allow all other frequencies to pass into the area of interest. `Wireless InSite' is used to demonstrate wave propagation in modified buildings with FSS to prove the enhancement of capacity. The demonstration is applied to Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems to verify the effect of Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) on such systems capacity. The test area is located in a floor inside Al-Ahliyya Amman University.
