5G Communication: High Gain Array Antenna Operating at 3.5GHz

Abstract

—5G technology is leverages advanced antenna technology and wider bandwidth to improve the potential of wireless communication that enables a significant increase in the amount of information that can be transmitted through the wireless system. With its ability to deliver higher data rates and lower latency, 5G promises to support a wide range of applications, from immersive virtual reality to autonomous vehicles.However, 5G communication systems are characterized by poor radiation features, which limit their usefulness in wider operational ranges. To overcome these issues, this project will focus on designing a high-gain array antenna operating at 3.5GHz specifically for 5G communication. A directional patch antenna will be designed for a specific base station to provide high radiation network connectivity and superior communication quality. Moreover, the high-gain array antenna at 3.5GHz will be optimized for long-distance point-to-point connections. In this project, a 4x4 patch antenna will be designed and fabricated using FR4 epoxy material to achieve high gain for long-distance signal transmission.
