Abstract Designing miniaturized multiband antennas to cover both the 5G new radio frequencies (FR1 and FR2) simultaneously is a challenge for wireless communication researchers. This paper presents two antenna designs : a dual-band printed antenna of size 18 × 16 × 0.285 mm3 operating at FR1–5.8 GHz and FR2–28 GHz and a triple-band printed antenna with dimensions 30 × 25 × 0.543 mm3 operating at FR1–3.5 GHz and 5.8 GHz (sub-6 GHz microwave frequency bands) and FR2–28 GHz (mm-wave frequency band). The final projected triple-band antenna has a compact size with an impedance bandwidth of 12.71%, 11.32%, and 18.3% at 3.5 GHz, 5.8 GHz, and 28 GHz, respectively with the corresponding gain of 1.86 dB, 2.55 dB, and 4.41 dB. The measured radiation characteristics of the fabricated prototypes show that the proposed designs are suitable for trendy 5G-RFID and mobile Internet of things (IoT) applications.

In this paper, a novel and compact center-fed dual-band WiFi printed antenna is presented. This antenna is designed using two different arms which correspond to the oscillation points of the dual band, and uses parasitic capacitance and U-shaped microstrip line to match and control the necessary bandwidth. The measured frequency bandwidth of this antenna is 2.3–2.61 GHz (310 MHz, 12.7%) at 2 GHz, and the high-frequency bandwidth is 4.82–5.84 GHz (1020 MHz, 19.1%) at 5 GHz, which meets the requirements for applications in global WiFi communication. This PCB antenna is double-sided, long, and narrow; its size is 7 × 45.9 × 1 mm3; it can be applied to wireless access point; and it has a near-omni-directional radiation pattern. The design, analysis, and measured results of this proposed antenna will be presented.
