Abstract

A super compact parasitic patch loaded patch antenna with enhanced gain and super wide band is proposed in this study for 5G millimetre-wave (mm-wave) applications. The proposed antenna has hybrid geometry and is constructed using circular and two rectangular driven patches with two semi-circular parasitic patches fed by stepped impedance microstrip line. The two rectangular stubs are incorporated on driven patch to improve the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) bandwidth. The two semi-circular parasitic patches are added on the fundamental radiator (driven/main patch) to further enhance the bandwidth to cover the entire Ka-band spectrum for 5G mm-wave requirements and covers 24–40 GHz frequency spectrum with VSWR ≤2. This designed radiator is feasible to be placed inside the multilayered housing systems or can be integrated along with the electronic components existing on the printed circuit board. Furthermore, a four-element modified corporate feed array configuration is constructed and their enhanced gain performances are compared with proposed radiator (single element). Both the prototypes are fabricated and experimentally validated for impedance and radiation characteristics and it is observed that, the simulated and measured responses are in good arrangement. The presented radiating element finds its applications in future 5G mm-wave, 5G base station controlling networks and 5G wideband code division multiple access.
