Abstract
This paper proposed a two port antipodal vivaldi antenna (AVA) for 5G FR2 (frequency range 2) applications at 28 GHz with improved bandwidth,gain and isolation. Each antenna consists of two array elements. The proposed antenna has dimensions 23.8 × 54 × 0.79 mm3 and is fabricated on Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 material. This material has a 2.2 low dielectric constant and mainly suitable for broadband high frequency applications. Proposed antenna covers −10 dB below from 25.51 to 33 GHz band, which having 7.49 GHz bandwidth. Gain for the presented MIMO (Multiple input multiple output) AVA array is varying from 8.50 to 12.44 dBi. A better isolation −34.56 dB is obtained between two antenna elements. MIMO characteristics like ECC (Envelope correlation coefficient), CCL (Channel capacity loss), DG (Diversity Gain), TARC (Total active reflection coefficient), and MEG (Mean effective gain) are satisfied with good results for presented antenna. The proposed antenna is designed using ansys HFSS simulation tool.
期刊介绍:
Frequenz is one of the leading scientific and technological journals covering all aspects of RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering. It is a peer-reviewed, bi-monthly published journal.
Frequenz was first published in 1947 with a circulation of 7000 copies, focusing on telecommunications. Today, the major objective of Frequenz is to highlight current research activities and development efforts in RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering throughout a wide frequency spectrum ranging from radio via microwave up to THz frequencies.
RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering is a very active area of Research & Development as well as of Applications in a wide variety of fields. It has been the key to enabling technologies responsible for phenomenal growth of satellite broadcasting, wireless communications, satellite and terrestrial mobile communications and navigation, high-speed THz communication systems. It will open up new technologies in communications, radar, remote sensing and imaging, in identification and localization as well as in sensors, e.g. for wireless industrial process and environmental monitoring as well as for biomedical sensing.
