Analysis of a 38 GHz Band Antenna for 5G wireless communication using Wave Concept Iterative Procedure (WCIP) method

The analysis of mm-Wave patch antenna for future fifth generation (5G) wireless communications is presented in this paper. The antenna is mounted on a compact Rogers substrate having dimensions 6.336 X 6.4 X 0.254 mm3 with relative permittivity (er) 2.2. The proposed antenna operates at a 38 GHz band. It is modelled by the Wave Concept Iterative Procedure (WCIP) method. The iterative procedure applies the fast modal transform (FMT) to change the analysis between spatial and spectral domains. In order to validate the present results we used the commercially available software CST MICROWAVE STUDIO. The numerical results show a good agreement compared with the CST simulation data, which illustrates the efficiency and correctness of our WCIP algorithm.
