A UWB Antenna with Bandwidth Enhancement for 5G, IoT, USB-dongle and UWB wireless applications

In the present proposal, we numerically design and empirically verify a compact printed antenna for 5G, IoT, USB Dongle, and UWB application. The antenna covers an expanded spectrum ranging from 3.1 GHz to 10.72 GHz. The dimension of the proposed antenna is 16mm×21.75mm = 348mm

. The realized gain & average efficiency of the antenna are equal to 1.47 dB and 62.86% respectively. The suggested antenna with compact dimensions, simple planar architecture, and low manufacturing cost can be effectively employed in 5G, IoT, USB-Dongle as well as UWB wireless applications.
