Abstract
In this paper, a new broadband patch antenna design for fifth-generation (5G) sub-6 GHz mobile systems is presented. The proposed 5G antenna has a very compact size with an overall dimension of 10.7 × 22.5 mm2. The 5G antenna consists of a log-periodic patch in the form of an equilateral triangle with a 50 Ω microstrip line feed and a ground plane of rectangular shape. The prototype of the proposed 5G antenna was made by etching on an FR4 substrate with a 1.6mm thickness, 4.3 dielectric constant and 0.02 tangent loss. The 5G antenna is designed and simulated for the frequency band range of 3.4-4.2 GHz. According to the measurement results, the 5G antenna impedance band range is determined as 3.1-3.9 GHz. Besides, the proposed 5G antenna has also near-omnidirectional radiation patterns both simulation and measurement at the resonance frequencies of 3.8 GHz and 3.5 GHz, respectively. According to these results, the proposed antenna is showed similar radiation characteristics in both measured and simulated results. With all these radiation and physical properties, the proposed log-periodic patch antenna is very suitable for sub-6 GHz 5G mobile applications.
