Abstract

Microstrip antennas are good candidate for wireless communication due to its low profile, light weight and ease of creation. Microstrip antenna is broadly used based on its application. This paper pronounces the design of microstrip antenna for 5G applications at a resonant frequency of 29 GHz with Rogers RT/Duroid 5880, Taconic thin layer chromatography (TLC) and flame retardant 4 (FR4) as substrate materials. The Microstrip line feeding mechanism is used for feeding the patch. The proposed antenna design and simulation output was attained by high frequency structure simulator (HFSS) software. In suggested design, Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 provides a high radiation efficiency of 97.4% when compared with others Taconic TLC (95.2%) and FR4 (78.6%). And also, Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 provides return loss of -36 dB, bandwidth of 1.8 GHz, gain of 5.9 dB and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) as 1. FR4 material provides high bandwidth of 2 GHz when compared with others.
