A Single-Fed Multiband Antenna for WLAN and 5G Applications

Abstract

In this paper, a slotted conical patch connected to a small triangular patch multiband antenna for both microwave and millimeter-wave applications is presented. The designed antenna has three characteristics. The proposed antenna is a multiband, having a compact size of 0.35λ0 × 0.35λ0 × 0.004λ0 at its lowest operational frequency, i.e., 2.4 GHz, and more importantly, it can cover both the microwave and millimeter-wave bands with a single feeding. According to the −10 dB matching bandwidth, experimental results show that the antenna operates at (2.450–2.495) GHz, (5.0–6.3) GHz, and (23–28) GHz. The reduced size, simple design, and multiband large bandwidth are some of the advantages over the reported designs in the latest literature. Both simulated and experimental results show a good agreement, and the proposed antenna can be used for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications and fifth-generation (5G) wireless communication devices.

Antennas and Propagation: A Sensor Approach

“…In Ref. [ 14 ], a multiband antenna for microwave and millimeter-wave applications is presented. The proposed antenna consists of a slotted, conical patch connected to a small triangular patch.…”

The Application of Electromagnetic Sensors for Determination of Cherenkov Cone Inside and in the Vicinity of the Detector Volume in Any Environment Known

“…If the electromagnetic sensors are narrowband, i.e., approximately 100 MHz and we want to analyze a Cherenkov radiation in a band of 100 MHz ÷ 1 GHz is required, then n sb = 9; so, we will obtain N = 288,000 electromagnetic sensors and a number of (n x × n y ) = 400 holes in the salt block. It is observed that a more economical option would consist in the use of the electromagnetic wide-band sensors [26].…”

A Novel Meander Bowtie-Shaped Antenna with Multi-Resonant and Rejection Bands for Modern 5G Communications

“…This configuration can support six resonating bands at resonant frequencies of 2.88 GHz, 3.64 GHz, 3.95 GHz, 4.38 GHz, 4.81 GHz, and 5.6 GHz with five rejection bands between them where two of these rejection bands have a reflection coefficient level larger than 5 dB. Four spectrums for sub-6 GHz and mm-wave applications that have been radiated from a slotted patch of conical shape connected to a small triangular patch were proposed in [20]; the design resonant frequencies were 2.4 GHz, 5.2 GHz, 5.8 GHz, and 27.5 GHz. An antenna element of the 'F' shape placed above a truncated ground plane has been proposed in [21] to operate in four reconfigurable frequency modes.…”
