Novel Vivaldi Antenna Design for 5G Applications

Abstract

This article presents a small-scale Vivaldi wideband antenna. The proposed antenna has a large bandwidth and high radiation level with the compact structure. Simulated and rendered using a substratum of FR-4, a total of 20 mm2 of 17 mm2 is proposed antenna. The declared design resonance is 5.8 GHz (4.94GHz – 7.61GHz) with a bandwidth for impedance of 2.67 GHz. The efficiency is improved by 98.9% and 3.66 dB which is included in the proposed architecture are applications for IoT, 5G, WLAN, the Smart Transport System (ITS) and RFID.
