摘要

A high-efficiency, single-band microstrip patch antenna designed for the 5G-sub-6 GHz spectrum is introduced in this research. The antenna incorporates a unique defective ground structure (DGS) by integrating a rectangular cut strip to enhance its characteristics. Constructed on an FR-4 epoxy substrate using the inset feed method, the single antenna measures 15.5 \(\,\times \,\) 19.4 mm \(^2\) , while the proposed two-port MIMO antenna spans 52.8 \(\,\times \,\) 52.8 mm \(^2\) . With a moderate maximum gain of 4.1 dBi, isolation above 15 dB and radiation efficiency of 97 \(\%\) , this antenna operates within the frequency range of 2.5 GHz to 4.2 GHz, covering the isolation above 15 dB in the sub-6 GHz section of the N78/77/48 band in the 5G spectrum. The antenna’s anticipated and observed properties affirm its suitability for 5G-NR band applications below the 6 GHz frequency range.
