Metamaterial Based Microstrip Patch Antenna Design for 5G/WiFi Wireless Technology applications.

الملخص

To increase the antenna performance (gain and directivity), metamaterial surfaces are essential for achieving in-phase reflection and surface wave suppression. A compact metamaterial antenna for 5G WiFi wireless applications is presented in this study. The proposed antenna operates at 5.5 GHz the bandwidth is greater than 160MHz. One composite right/left handed unit cell is used in the construction of the suggested antenna. The suggested antenna has a smaller dimension (it measures just 18 x 17.2 x 5 mm) and achieves return loss of better than 10dB. Approximately 32% less area is covered by the design than by traditional patch antennas using the same frequency.
