T-slotted microstrip patch antenna for 5G Wi-Fi network

A compact planar T-slotted micro strip antenna simultaneously suitable for 5G Wireless communication at millimeter wave frequency is presented. The antenna is simulated using the CST software. CST, computer simulated technology simulator is used to study radiation characteristics of the antenna and simulated results such as return loss, the radiation pattern and polar plot gain is shown. The simulation result met the IEEE 802.11ad standard operating in 60 GHz millimeter wave frequency band suitable for 5G Wireless communication. The measured results show the lowest return loss of -38 dB, gain of antenna is 6.34 dB and the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) is near to 1 at 23 GHz and 60 GHz indicating that the antenna is a good candidate for very high speed WLAN applications.
