Abstract

The mutual purpose of evolvements in wireless communication technologies and improvement actions coordinated in the direction of these developments is to receive data obtained from communication systems efficiently and properly. Therefore, antenna design plays a key role in the 5G communication module. Antenna structures used in Fifth Generation (5G) technologies should essentially include a wideband operation region and high gain in order to meet design requirements. Various configurations using patch geometries can be obtained in order to obtain broadband and acceptable high gain in planar antenna structures for 5G technologies.

Antennas used in 5G communication systems should be compact, light, and design that can be integrated into reserved space for the antenna in interested devices.  Microstrip antennas are often preferred in 5G technologies due to their low cost, compact size, and ease of fabrication and several techniques can be applied in order to remedy their low gain and narrow operation bandwidth properties of them. The patch technique is frequently used in microstrip antenna designs. In this study, the design properties of the proposed microstrip antenna are taken into account for new generation wireless communication systems. A microstrip antenna design with compact size, operating N257 (26500 – 29500 MHz) frequency band, gain above 3dB, having broadband operation ability is proposed intended for Fifth Generation (5G) communication technologies. After that, antenna geometries are modified using the patch technique to obtain a high gain and desired operation bandwidth of the designed antenna. To meet design requirements, the top and bottom of the proposed microstrip antenna are trying to be changed by patches with various proper geometrical shapes.
