A 28 GHz 5G Phased Array Antenna with Air-Hole Slots for Beam Width Enhancement

Abstract: In this paper, a 28 GHz fifth-generation (5G) phased array antenna with air-hole slots for beam width enhancement is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of eight dipole radiators on a mobile handset-sized ground with air-hole slots between the two adjacent elements for enhancing the half power beam width (HPBW) in the elevation plane. The dimensions of the proposed antenna are 130 mm × 42 mm × 0.127 mm. The proposed array antenna satisfies a −10 dB reflection coefficient in the frequency range from 27.2 to… Show more

“…Table 2 summarizes the performance of this work and compares it with state-of-the-art mm-wave phased-array antennas [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ]. The proposed patch shows around an 8.5 dBi antenna gain, which is better than [ 31 , 35 , 37 , 38 ], at a similar frequency. It describes that the air-filled cavity as a patch gap between the ground increased the antenna efficiency effectively instead of a lossy FR4 PCB material.…”

“…A microstrip circular patch antenna with a modified Lshaped aperture slot that is coupled to a microstrip feedline is proposed [8]. A phased array eight-element 28 GHz antenna with air hole slots for 5G applications with enhanced half power beamwidth (HPBW) is presented, where the inclusion of circuit elements and liquid crystal display (LCD) panel has to be studied on mobile handsets [9]. A switch-based micro-electromechanical switch (MEMS) based antenna which works at 35.4 GHz frequency with a bandwidth of 6.64% is based on the concept of reconfigurability is presented but the fabricated prototype is not mentioned with validation results [10].…”

“…I N order to meet the demands for high data rates, millimeter wave (mmWave) radio frequency bands have been considered in the fifth-generation (5G) communication systems [1], [2]. Due to high path loss and atmospheric absorption at mmWave, a single antenna element won't be able to combat the attenuation [3], [4]. The Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technique, in which multiple antenna elements are deployed both at the transmitting and receiving ends of the wireless system will be used [5], [6].…”
