Abstract

A new array antenna is proposed for mm-Wave 5G wireless communication applications in this paper. The array antenna geometry presented consists of six identical patch pieces coupled in a 1 × 6 arrangement with a partial ground plane. To achieve the necessary operating band and high gain range, the structures of each single antenna element are changed by adding combinations of rectangle and triangle-shaped slots with a partial ground plane. The suggested array antenna design and simulation studies were carried out utilizing high frequency structure simulator (HFSS) software. This paper represents how the performance of a parallel feed array antenna changes as the substrate material changes for that we use FR4, Rogers RO3010, and Rogers RT/duroid6010/6010LM substrates with 0.8 mm thickness. The 1 × 6 array antenna FR4 resonates at 38.8 GHz with a bandwidth of 4.2 GHz for the Rogers RO3010 substrate resonates at 37.3 GHz and 40.2 GHz with a bandwidth of 2.8 GHz and 2.7 GHz, and for Rogers RT/duroid 6010/6010LM resonates at 37.3 GHz and 40.6 GHz bandwidth of 2.6 GHz and 2.5 GHz, respectively.
