design of a circular patch antenna with parasitic elements for 5g applications

A design of a wideband bidirectional pattern antenna, accomplished by the integration of a circular patch, crescents as parasitic elements, encompassed by a circular ring adjoining the ground plane, to operate over the mid-band 5g sub-6 ghz applications is reported. it is come up with a copper grazed on fr4 substrate with relative permittivity of 4.3 and height of 1.6 mm. the proposed antenna is fed by a 50- ohm coplanar waveguide, which is printed on the same side of the radiating circular patch. a concise antenna model with dimensions of 45 × 45 × 0.6 mm³ was made up and investigated to affirm the simulation outcomes. good consistency was confirmed between experimental and simulation results. the proposed antenna has the benefit of bidirectional pattern with a good gain of 5.24 dbi and wide bandwidth covering of 111.4% (1.81-6.36 ghz) — it is one of good postulants for 5g new radiation application especially for indoor environment, narrow, and long path services area like corridor, tunnel, and train station, etc.
