“…By antenna pattern could analyze the antenna space radiation characteristics. As shown in Figure 10(e), the radiation range of the main lobe of the measured antenna pattern E surface is concentrated in one direction, 26,27 there is no secondary flap, and there is a small rear flap with the opposite direction of the main lobe. The overall antenna pattern E-plane matched the simulated one, and the simulated one had a larger radiation range than the measured E-plane antenna pattern.…”

With the popularity of 5 G, there is an increasing request for a light, high-performance, and stable structure for wireless communication. To solve the problems of delamination cracking and its own heavy weight of the conventional microstrip antenna, this study used ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) filament tows and purple copper filament tows as raw materials to prepare 3D woven hollow structure microstrip antenna preforms on a common loom. Using the prepared preforms for reinforcement and resin as the matrix, the VARTM process was used to prepare a 3D woven hollow structure microstrip antenna with a height of 6.8 mm, a weight of 35 g, and a bulk density of 0.7 g/cm3. The combination of the electromagnetic performance test and HFSS software simulation shows that the antenna has excellent radiation performance with a gain of 7.5 dB and a measured VSWR of 1.25. The mechanical performance test results show that it can withstand a maximum compression load of 2982 N and a maximum bending load of 364 N with no obvious delamination at the fracture. It is light, thin, and load-bearing with excellent radiation performance. There will be great potential in the unmanned field and the space field in the future.

“…In Ref. [ 20 ], the Franklin array element is proposed to operate at two frequency bands, one at 21.5–24.3 GHz and the second at 33.9–36 GHz. To accomplish this, the proposed antenna utilized a 3 × 3 array radiating patch and slotted ground plane, respectively.…”

The 5th generation (5G) network was planned to provide a fast, stable, and future-proof mobile communication network to existing society. This research presents a highly compact arc shape structure antenna resonating at 28 GHz for prospective millimeter-wave purposes in the 5G frequency spectrum. The circular monopole antenna is designed with a radius of 1.3 mm. An elliptical slot on the radiating plane aids in achieving an enhanced bandwidth resonating at the frequency of 28 GHz. Including an elliptical slot creates new resonance and helps improve the bandwidth. The antenna has an ultra-compact dimension of 5 × 3 × 1.6 mm3, which corresponds to an electrical length of 0.46λ × 0.28λ × 0.14λ, where λ is free space wavelength at the resonant frequency. The projected antenna has an impedance bandwidth of 15.73% (25.83–30.24 GHz). The antenna has a good radiation efficiency of 89%, and the average gain is almost 4 dB over the entire impedance bandwidth. The simulated and experimental S11 findings are in good agreement.
