A compact 5G antenna printed on manganese zinc ferrite substrate material

Abstract

In this article, a compact antenna is proposed using new microwave dielectric ceramic (MDC) substrate for 5G millimetre wave application. The distinctive novelties exhibited in this article are used of MDCs substrate material for antenna designing and performances analysis for wireless communication. The proposed antenna achieves impedance bandwidth of 2.66 GHz (from 27.235 GHz to 29.895 GHz), which covers the top interest (28 GHz) for 5G mm-wave in some countries and trials have been reported. The proposed antenna attains average gain of 5.44 dB and 93% of radiation efficiency with antenna size of 1.32λ × 1.32λ × 0.094λ.

A High Gain Multi Slotted and Compact Planar Microstrip Millimeter Wave Antenna for 5g Networks

“…To study its performance, the proposed antenna profile has been analyzed, designed, and simulated in terms of different parameters like S 11 , VSWR, gain, and impedance bandwidth. Simulated results predict that the antenna provides wider bandwidth and higher gain for a single frequency band than the work mentioned in [17][18][19][20][21][22], and the simulated bandwidth from the S 11 plot is later proved by the measured results. Through comparing the return loss and VSWR, the measured response is quite close to the simulated values, verifying the simulated results.…”

“…However, in many recent studies, new dielectric substrate materials like magneto-dielectrics, sol-gel-based synthesized substrate, and ilicon on glass (SoG) technology have been in focus to maximize the performance of microstrip antenna for 5G and IoT communications. Authors in [18] have presented a compact microstrip patch antenna that uses a micro-wave dielectric ceramic for 5G communication networks with small dimensions of 14 × 14 mm 2 . The introduced novel idea provides a bandwidth of 2.66 GHz, radiation efficiency of 93%, and maximum realized gain value of 5.82 dB at the 28 GHz millimeter-wave frequency band.…”

Improving the Performance of Patch Antenna by Applying Bandwidth Enhancement Techniques for 5G Applications

“…11, using the combination of DGS and stacked patch technique obviously increases bandwidth and it prevents significant decrease on gain. [15] 28 GHz -39.36 dB 2.48 GHz 6.37 dB [16] 28.3 GHz ≈-38 dB 2.4 GHz 5.56 dB [17] 28 GHz -40 dB 1.3GHz 7.6 dB [18] 28 GHz ≈-28 dB 2.66 GHz 5.82 dB [19] 28 GHz -24 dB 2.24 GHz 7.86 dB [20] 27.9 GHz -15.35 dB ≈0.5 GHz 6.92 dB [21] 28.96 GHz -19.12 dB 3.93 GHz 6.05 dB [22] 28 GHz -59.17 Of course, it is possible to obtain wider bandwidth with lower gain or vice versa by applying different design techniques, which depends on the application and major consideration of the design. However, the overall aim of this work is to improve antenna performance by using bandwidth enhancement techniques in the design and results show that in the desired frequency range, efficient designs with wide bandwidth and good gain for single or array type RMAs are achieved for the applications of 5G.…”

New Nanosized (Gd3+, Sm3+) Co-doped Zinc Ferrite for Telecommunication Applications. Magnetic and Structural Properties.

“…Interestingly, with the development of technology and miniaturization, research and development has focused on new antenna technology and new substrates, adaptive network configuration, dynamic structure, sustainable performance, low cost and energy efficient use, etc. Zn 0.8 Mn 0.2 Fe 2 O 4 zinc-manganese ferrite with low loss properties (loss tangent 0<0.03) is used as an antenna substrate to introduce a new dielectric substrate for compact 5G antenna mounting [21]. Provided that the nanoferrites Zn-Mg, Zn-Mn and MgSm x Gd y Fe 2-x-y O 4 [22] , have given very good results, for the design of a micro-strip patch antenna, in the same sense our work will focus on ZnFe 1.98 0.01 Sm 0.01 O 4 .…”
