Abstract

In this paper, a wideband hybrid dielectric resonator antenna (HDRA) array design is presented for fifth-generation (5G) millimeter wave (mmWave) applications. The hybrid antenna integrates three resonant radiators of feeding slot, ring patch, and DRA to generate four resonances around 28 and 38 GHz frequency bands. The antenna element within an overall size of 0.46λ L × 0.46λ L × 0.1λ L (λ L is the free-space wavelength at 28 GHz) can achieve wide impedance bandwidth, covering n257, n259, n260 and n261, simultaneously. The 1 × 4 HDRA array is designed and simulated based on the antenna element which can achieve high realized gain varies between 10.3 to 12.5 dBi and wide beam scanning angles of ±55° and ±40° at 28 and 38 GHz frequency bands, respectively.
