Abstract
A Novel Negative Meander Line Design of Microstrip Antenna for 28 GHz mmWave Wireless Communications
Highlights
The development of LTE-Advanced was predominantly driven by need for internet services [1], [2]
The antenna is regarded as a critical component in any wireless communication system due to its capability to transmit or receive electromagnetic waves [3]
The geometry of negative meander line antenna system is shown in Fig. 1(a) and 1(b)
Summary
The development of LTE-Advanced was predominantly driven by need for internet services [1], [2]. Research clarifies that wide antenna bandwidth can be accomplished by employing several techniques for instance, optimizing impedance matching [4], mounting parasitic elements [5], incorporating thick substrates [6], integrating multiple resonances [7], exercising low effective permittivity substrate [8], and employing reactive impedance surface [9] These methods experience a few notable complexities like spurious coupling, larger extent, reduced efficiency and low gain. The conductors in a meander line approach are fashioned by a sequence of sets of right-angled bends to obtain configuration simplicity, large bandwidth and to reduce the radiating element’s overall size [12,13,14,15,16,17] This arrangement suffers from poor radiation efficiency [18].
