The Review and Analysis of Antenna for Sixth Generation (6G) Applications

Abstract

A wireless devices has continuous technology improvement to provide a better and interesting services. The next generation, 6G is expected to support the gigantic amount of data traffic to cope the rise of connection wireless device. As a solution, a large bandwidth is supposed to be focused and a better gain is required. Then, a new frequency region that is at THz band is utilized. Since 6G technology is very new and not be defined yet, the previous work on 6G is reviewed to make a clear decision on antenna design specification. An antenna at 300 GHz for 6G application is also proposed and analysis of gain improvement is presented in this paper. The simulated results of single element 6G antenna have wider bandwidth of 86.66 GHz from 278.56 GHz to 367.33 GHz at −10 dB level, directive radiation pattern at E-plane and H-plane, and higher gain of 5.41 dBi.
