10-Element Yagi Antenna for 38 GHz Frequency

In this paper, our primary emphasis is on investigating the Yagi antenna at a working frequency of 38 GHz, and evaluate antenna characteristics such as return loss, gain, directivity and radiation pattern. The material for making the antenna consists of PEC pipes as reflector element, driven element and director elements with a diameter of 0.2 mm. The design of the Yagi antenna uses CST studio suite 2021 software. The proposed antenna has return loss values of -16.29 dB, and attains a peak gain of 10.88 dBi for 38 GHz millimeter wave-band. The proposed antenna's performance in terms of radiation efficiency, directivity, gain, and radiation pattern positions it as a viable option for 5G millimeter-wave communication.
