    Wideband Eight-Element MIMO Antenna System for 5G FR1 Mobile Terminals
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Zidour, Ali; Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad; Ayad, Mouloud; Kouhalvandi, Lida
    In this paper, a broadband antenna system for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) applications in 5G FR1 mobile terminals. The MIMO design consists of eight L-shaped coupled slot antenna elements based on stepped impedance resonators (SIRs) that can generate resonances to achieve wide operating bandwidth. The simulated results of the MIMO system show a -6 dB wide impedance bandwidth of 47% ranging from 3.25 to 5.2 GHz and inter-element isolation level of greater than 12 dB have been obtained for each antenna element with an envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) below 0.05 providing a reliable anti-interference for the MIMO antenna system. In addition, the simulated total efficiencies are higher than 50% across the 5G NR bands; n77 (3.3-4.2 GHz), n78 (3.3-3.8 GHz), and n79 (4.4-5 GHz).

    Dual-Band Vertically Polarized Endfire Antenna Array for 5G NR FR2 Bands Applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Zidour, Ali; Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad; Ayad, Mouloud; Kouhalvandi, Lida
    In this paper, a dual-band endfire antenna is proposed for promising 5G NR mmWave frequency (FR2) bands applications. The antenna design introduces a novel radiating aperture array analogy based on open-end substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) feeding technology to achieve vertically polarized dual-band operation. The simulated -10 dB impedance bandwidth achieves 11.5 % (26.3-29.5 GHz) lower band and 9.6 % (36.8-40.5 GHz) higher band. The peak realized gain is 8.78 dBi and 11.5 dBi in the lower and higher bands, respectively. The mmWave array delivers a scanning angle of ± 40° and ± 32° for a realized endfire gain higher than 5.5 dBi and 8.2 dBi at 28 GHz and 39 GHz, respectively.

    Wideband Endfire Antenna Array for 5G mmWave Mobile Terminals
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Zidour, Ali; Ayad, Mouloud; Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad; See, Chan Hwang; Lai, Ying-Xin; Ma, Yue.; Guenad, Boumediene; Livreri, Patrizia; Khan, Salahuddin; Pau, Giovanni; Denidni, Tayeb A.
    In this paper, a compact endfire antenna array with low-profile, small clearance, and wideband operation is proposed for millimeter-wave (mmWave) fifth-generation (5G) mobile terminals. The wideband operation is achieved by exciting two identical bow-tie dipoles inserted on both sides of a multilayer substrate fed by an asymmetric open-end stripline to slotline transition. The antenna performance is significantly improved by introducing a set of vertical metallic vias. The proposed antenna element can achieve 29 % from 24.2 GHz to 32.4 GHz with a peak realized gain that varies from 3.5 dBi to 4.5 dBi. A linear 4-element antenna array is arranged and fabricated to verify the proposed antenna beamforming capabilities. The simulated and measured bandwidth achieves a wide range of 34.4 % (24-34 GHz) to support 26, 28, and 30 GHz 5G mmWave bands with an isolation level better than 20 dB and a peak realized gain over the interested bands ranging from 7.56 to 8.14 dBi. The simulated array scanning angle is ± 68° at 28 GHz within 3-dB gain deterioration. Furthermore, the simulated spherical coverage has met the requirements of 3GPP standards which make the proposed antenna array a promising candidate to be integrated within mmWave 5G mobile devices
