摘要
A novel quasi-Yagi antenna is proposed for millimeter-wave (mmWave) 5G cellular handsets operating in the 28 GHz band. The proposed antenna is designed to be compact through modification of the planar folded dipole topology so that it can be mounted inside a compact mobile terminal. A vertically stacked structure utilizing a multilayer printed circuit board (PCB) and via holes is applied to the antenna topology to minimize the antenna lateral width while maintaining the characteristics of the planar folded dipole antenna. A single antenna yields a -10 dB bandwidth for a return loss of 12.3% (26.3 to 29.75 GHz) and a gain of 5.51 dBi at 28 GHz. The change in beam patterns due to the chassis effect when four-element linear arrays are inserted into the upper and side edge inside the terminal is analyzed.
