A Review on Antenna Design for 5G Applications

Abstract

This paper describes the trends that are being followed in 5G antenna design. The antenna design techniques that are used in Sub-6 GHz range to achieve better isolation, efficiency and channel capacity will be discussed. Increasing the number of antenna in 5G MIMO antenna array can increase the efficiency up to 80% and capacity more than 50b/s/Hz in sub-6GHz range. Apart from this, designs of antenna in millimeter range are also investigated. Comparison of various antennas based on their performance is done.
