Abstract EN

A compact hybrid-mode antenna is proposed for sub-6 GHz communication.

The proposed antenna is composed of a slotted rectangular patch, a feeding dipole, and a balun.

Three modes are sequentially excited in a shared patch to achieve a compact size.

A prototype antenna with a major size of 0.48 λ0 × 0.31 λ0 × 0.16 λ0 (λ0 is the wavelength in the free space at the center of the operating frequency band) is fabricated and measured.

The measured results demonstrate an impedance bandwidth of 56.87% from 2.97 GHz to 5.33 GHz and an average gain of approximately 8.00 dBi with 1 dB variation in the operating frequency band of 3.0–5.0 GHz.

The proposed antenna can be an element for microbase stations in sub-6 GHz communication.
