Abstract

Over the last few years, the effect of wireless technology has greatly impacted the expanding tech industry at a progressive rate. Specifically, the recent surge in 5G communication has been credited for this rapid growth as this method of mass data transmission has globally been touted as the plateau of cellular networks. One of the leading proponents behind 5G telecommunication possible can be found in antennas which operate in high-frequency spectrums, an example of this is patch antennas, surprisingly at minuscule size, yet able to generate powerful signal at 5G spectrum. Our proposed antenna is implemented with a microstrip structure on FR4 dielectric substrate. In this study, using an electromagnetic simulation software (Sonnet), we have designed a model of a microwave patch antenna operating at one of the FCC-allowed 5G telecommunication bands and compared the reflection parameters of our physical antenna with the simulation antenna. We have also presented the radiative pattern of our proposed design which can be easily implemented for various wireless applications.
