A broadband vertically/horizontally (V/H) dual-polarized antenna is proposed for mobile communication base stations. The antenna consists of two perpendicularly placed broadband planar antenna elements. By shaping the reflector for V/H dual-polarized antenna, a half-power beam width of 65±8° is achieved for both vertical and horizontal polarization. The V/H dual-polarized antenna has a bandwidth of 48% (1.7–2.75 GHz) for return loss >15 dB, an isolation of 30 dB, and an antenna gain of 9 dBi. An 8-element V/H dual-polarized antenna array is developed, which achieves a bandwidth of 45% (1.7–2.7 GHz) and an antenna gain of 16 dBi, suitable for GSM/UMTS/LTE base stations.

Abstract A triple-band ±45° dual-polarized dipole antenna is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna covers two bands from n77 and one from n79 5G NR frequency spectrums. The profile antenna exhibits the measured impedance bandwidths 3.6-3.85 GHz, 4.05-4.2 GHz and 4.8- 5.15 GHz with S11, S22 < - 15dB return loss. Antenna is fabricated with four substrates; one radiator, one reflector and two feeding baluns. Antenna is designed and optimized with HFSS simulator and fabricated for experimental verification. Antenna gives a stable radiation pattern with 8.55dBi high gain and 70° half power beam width (HPBW) that makes it a good candidate for wireless 5G sub-6 GHz and multiband base station applications. Finally, antenna is tested in a realistic application environment to show the utility of the proposed antenna for wireless sub-6 GHz IoT applications.
