- Abstract
The antenna requirements for 5 G and 6 G in mm wave frequencies differ significantly from those of low-frequency applications, necessitating the use of highly directive or multibeam antennas. To construct high-gain antenna structures, effective and robust solutions include planar, end-fire, linear, and series-fed arrays. In our research, we present an innovative combination of series-fed and planar Franklin array configurations for an antenna structure. Specifically, our proposed four-element series-fed-planar Franklin array utilizes a three-element series-fed array of slotted rectangular patch antennas as a single element. The antenna slot allows for precise frequency adjustment and impedance matching better than −10 dB, resulting in a wide range of frequency tuning without requiring −10 dB impedance tuning and maintaining a quality factor of 17.52. Through the implementation of a dual-array configuration, the antenna gain is boosted by 7.8 dBi compared to the reference antenna (A1). The effectiveness of our proposed technique has been verified through thorough simulations in Ansys Full-wave Electromagnetic Simulator-2021 and measurement results.
