Abstract

A triple-band ± 45° dual-polarized dipole antenna is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna covers two n77 bands and one n79 band in 5G NR frequency spectrums with S11, S22 <− 15 dB return loss. The profile antenna exhibits the measured impedance bandwidths of 250 MHz, 150 MHz and 350 MHz from the operating bands 3.6–3.85 GHz, 4.05–4.2 GHz and 4.8–5.15 GHz respectively. Antenna is fabricated with four substrates; one radiator, one reflector and two feeding baluns. Antenna is designed and optimized with HFSS simulator and fabricated for experimental verification. Antenna gives a stable radiation pattern of 8.55 dBi high gain with 70° half power beam width (HPBW) that makes it a good candidate for wireless 5G sub-6 GHz and multiband base station applications. Finally, antenna is tested in a realistic application environment to show the utility of the proposed antenna for wireless sub-6 GHz IoT applications.
