Abstract

A new phased array antenna with broad bandwidth is proposed for 5G mobile terminals. The array is achieved by arranging eight substrate-insensitive radiators in a uniform linear array on the upper edge of the smartphone PCB board. The antenna element is composed of racket-shaped/metal-ring radiator inserted inside the substrate. The proposed design exhibit a wide impedance bandwidth of 25.8-43.3 GHz. Simulation results show that the proposed antenna array offers satisfactory performance including beam-steering, high efficiency, high gain, and wide impedance bandwidth, which indicates its promising potential for 5G applications. In addition, the fundamental characteristics of the proposed array design are insensitive for different types of substrates.
