This paper depicts a wideband circularly polarized (CP) antenna for 5G
devices. The antenna array has a 3D structure including four simple printed
dipole elements with directional radiations, high gain, and high efficiency. It
achieves a CP by using the sequential rotation (SR) feeding based on 90°-
3dB hybrid couplers in the proposed feeding network. The antenna array
bandwidth is wide, 26.7%, with an operating frequency band from 3.35 GHz
to 4.35 GHz. The antenna achieves a high peak gain of 10.73 dBi and high
efficiency of 93.75%. Besides, the antenna gain is stable over the operating
bandwidth (BW). At the centre operating frequency of 3.75 GHz, the angle
of circular polarization is 51°. The antenna is designed and fabricated on the
Rogers 4003 C substrate. The measured S11 is well matching with the

1. INTRODUCTION
Circularly polarized (CP) microstrip antennas have been used widely in many communication
systems, including 5G mobile communication, because of their advantages over linearly-polarized antennas
in reducing energy loss, multipath effect, and Faraday rotation effect [1]. Also, 5G operating in both
spectrums, including lower frequencies, frequency range (FR1) (4.1 GHz-7.125 GHz), and higher
frequencies, FR2 (24.25 GHz-52.6 GHz), have attracted much attention [1]. There have been several
researches about CP antennas working at FR1 using several structures such as single-feed [2]-[12] or
multiple-feeds [13]-[17]. Using single-feed structures to achieve a CP antenna is the simplest technique, but
it has a limitation of narrow bandwidth. Meanwhile, multiple-feeds structures such as antenna arrays can give
not only wide bandwidth but also high gain. These CP antenna arrays have obtained significant
achievements. Still, higher gain, wider bandwidth, simpler structure requirements for FR1 bands have been a
challenge in designing CP antenna arrays.
This paper proposes a CP antenna array that consists of four dipole elements. Rogers 4003 C
substrate is chosen to design the antenna because of low weight, low loss, and high hardness. The SR
technique is applied for feeding network design using 90o
phase-shifters and quasi-equal-amplitude to obtain
the wideband CP antenna. Two CP modes of the antenna are obtained by changing the feeding point PIN-
diodes element to avoid the loss and non-linear effect. The antenna achieves a CP with a degree of 51°, a

high gain of 10.73 dBi, and a wide bandwidth of 26.7%. The rest of this paper is organized is being as.
Section 2 presents the design of the 5G CP antenna as well as its simulated and measured results. The
conclusion of the paper is in section 3.
2. 5G CIRCULARLY POLARIZED ANTENNA DESIGN
This section presents the design of the 5G CP antenna including the antenna element, the antenna
array, and the feeding network in subsection 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 respectively. The latest describes the simulated
and measured results of the proposed antenna as well as the discussion and the comparison between the
archived results and the publications.
2.1. Printed dipole antenna element
The 5G printed dipole element with “J”-Balun is proposed in Figure 1(a) according to the theory in
[17]-[22] but high gain and directional pattern. Thanks to achieving high efficiency, the dipole antennas are
often chosen to design CP antennas. The antenna element is designed on Rogers 4003 C substrate with a
dielectric constant of 3.55 and a height of 0.813 mm. On the one side of the substrate, the antenna includes a
radiator with two arms and a ground for obtaining directional radiation and high antenna gain. On the other
side, a “J” Balun is integrated into the feeding to ensure electricity balancing for two arms. Figure 1(b)
illustrates the equivalent circuit of J-Balun for impedance studying. The radiator and Balun's detail
dimensions are calculated similarly to the steps in [8]. The perfect matching is achieved when Lb =Lab =/4.
The antenna is designed for the center frequency of 3.75 GHz. The parameters of the proposed antenna are
calculated, optimized by CST software, and shown in Table 1. The antenna element prototype is presented in
Figure 1(c).

Figure 2 shows the S11 simulation results of the dipole antenna. The Figure shows that the antenna
bandwidth is from 3.6 GHz to 4 GHz (at S11 < -10 dB), and the simulation reflection coefficient S11 is -45 dB
at 3.75 GHz. Figure 3(a) presents the 3D radiation pattern of the antenna element and Figure 3(b) plots E-
plane and H-plane of the radiation pattern. The printed dipole antenna achieves a peak gain of 6.478 dBi, an
angular width (-3dB) of 129.30°, and total radiation efficiency of 96.63%.

2.2. Dipole antenna array
CP antennas can be achieved by using single-feed or multiple-feeds structures as mentioned in
section 1. Several techniques have been reported in recent decades such as dual-feed, mutual coupling and
reactive loading, stacked, aperture coupled, and sequentially rotated [23]. The CP antenna arrays that use
sequentially rotated feed network generate wideband, high gain, and CP radiation from a linear polarization
[5], [14], [16], [24]-[25].
Figure 4(a) shows the structure of the CP antenna array with a total dimension of 80×80×40 mm3
.
The antenna array consists of four above antenna elements, and the proposed feeding network presented in
the next section (subsection 2.3). Two neighboring dipole elements are perpendicular, and all four elements
are perpendicular to the feeding network. This configuration has the advantage of low mutual coupling
between these elements in the antenna array. The antenna obtains a wideband CP by applying the SR feeding
technique thanks to the feeding network. The excited phases feeding ports 2, 3, 4, 5 correspondings to four
dipoles 2, 3, 4, 5 are arranged 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270° as shown in Table 2.

2.3. Feeding network design
The feeding network is illustrated in Figure 4(b), and the desired phase difference between adjacent
feeding ports presented in Table 2. It utilizes two 90°-3dB hybrid couplers and a 100  quarter-wavelength
transmission lines to create 90° and 180° phase shifts, respectively, and 70.7  quarter-wavelength
transmission lines for feeding and matching impedance between the elements.

Figure 4. These figures are, (a) Structure of the CP antenna array, (b) The proposed feeding network
The 90° -3 dB hybrid coupler (HC) in the proposed feeding network is used for spliting power and
changing phases [11]. The HC is designed form on a conventional microstrip hybrid with four ports, as
depicted in Figure 5. The operation principle of the HC in Figure 5 is depicted is being as. The input power at
port 1 is divided into two equal parts to port 3 and port 4 with a 90-degree phase change between two
outputs, and it is not transmitted to port 5. S parameter of the HC is presented in (1).
Figure 5. Structure of hybrid coupler
Figure 6 presents the S parameters and the phase changes between the two output ports of the HC in
Figure 5. Figure 6(a) shows that the power at port 1 is divided into port 3 and port 4 while it is not
transmitted to port 2 in operating bandwidth. It can be seen in Figure 6(b) that the phase difference tween
port 3 and port 4 is 90o
at the center frequency of 3.75 GHz. The 3dB BW of the HC at -10 dB is from 3 GHz
to 4.5 GHz. These two HCs are integrated into the feeding network.
The input power with 50-ohm impedance at port 1as shown in Figure 4(b) is splited to feed to four
elements of the array. The dipole element feed impedance must be matched with feeding lines. The length of
the microstrip line from the feeding point (port 1) to port 3 (dipole 2) longer than to port 2 (dipole 1) a
quarter-wavelength for obtaining a 90-degree phase delay tween port 2 and port 3. This is similar to the pair
of dipole 3 (port 4)/dipole 2 (port 3) and dipole 4 (port 5)/dipole 3 (port 4). The width of the quarter-wave

lines is calculated to ensure impedance matching between 50 Ω inputs of the dipole elements and 100 Ω lines
(width of W1) as well as between the input of subminiature version A (SMA) connector and 100 Ω lines. The
impedance of the lines to match 50 Ω input dipoles and 100 Ω lines are 70.7 Ω with the width of W2. The
value of W1 and W2 are calculated, then optimized by central standard time (CST) and presented in Table 3.

Figure 7 depicts the simulated S-parameters of the feeding network, including amplitude and phase
when exciting port 1. The Figure 7(a) that antenna bandwidth is about 1 GHz (3.27 GHz-4.36 GHz). The
arguments of S21, S31, S41, S51 are approximately -6 dB at 3.6 GHz-4.0 GHz band. It means that the power
entering port 1 is equally divided into the rest four ports with low loss. Therefore, the antenna array obtains
the CP at the band of 3.65 GHz-3.93 GHz. The minimum Axial ratio (AR) of the antenna is below 2.5 dB at
3.6 GHz-4.0 GHz. It can be enhanced when the amplitude of excitation at all antenna element ports are the
same. According to Figure 7(b), the phase delay between two inputs of dipole 2/dipole 1, dipole 3/dipole 2,
and dipole 4/dipole3 is approximately 900
. This phase-difference is maintained at the band of 3.6 GHz-3.93
GHz. It explains why the CP antenna array has the CP at this band.

network and four dipole elements as presented above. Figure 8 shows the CP antenna array prototype with a
total dimension of 80×80×40 mm3
. Figure 9 shows the antenna reflection coefficient. The antenna array
bandwidth is increased by 16 % compared to single dipole antenna bandwidth. The CP antenna array has CP
from 3.65 GHz to 3.93 GHz. The measured S11 reflection coefficient is well matching with the simulation
results.

Figure 10 plots the simulated radiation pattern of our CP antenna and AR in H-plane and E-plane of
the CP antenna array at 3.75 GHz. The Figure shows the antenna has a wide CP angle of 51° at 3.75 GHz.
Figure 11 depicts the simulated AR and gain of the CP antenna array vias frequency. The array (AR) is less
than 3 dB in the band of 3.6 GHz - 3.9 GHz (7.5%). It means that the proposed CP antenna array has high CP
bandwidth of 250 MHz. This band’s peak gain is more than 10.66 dBi with a maximum value of 10.73 dBi at
3.75 GHz. The total radiation efficiency is up to 93.75%. At 3.75 GHz, the beam-width of circular
polarization is 51°. Table 4 summarizes the results of several circular polarization antennas [5], [6], [16], [17]
which have a wide bandwidth, a circular polarization, and a 3D structure. Our proposed design has a higher
gain at the microwave frequency ranges than in [5], [6], [16], [17]. The proposed design has wider bandwidth
and wider bandwidth of CP compared to [6], [16]. However, the total dimension of antennas in [16], is
smaller than our antenna dimension. The smallest bandwidth antenna in [6] (BW=100 MHz) has the smallest
size (0.32×0.32×0.12). It is depict that the more broadband antenna is, the bigger the antenna dimension is.
The very high gain, CP, wideband, and low-profile are advantages of our proposed antenna. This antenna is

INTRODUCTION Circularly polarized (CP) microstrip antennas have been used widely in many communication systems, including 5G mobile communication, because of their advantages over linearly-polarized antennas in reducing energy loss, multipath effect, and Faraday rotation effect [1]. Also, 5G operating in both spectrums, including lower frequencies, frequency range (FR1) (4.1 GHz-7.125 GHz), and higher frequencies, FR2 (24.25 GHz-52.6 GHz), have attracted much attention [1]. There have been several researches about CP antennas working at FR1 using several structures such as single-feed [2]-[12] or multiple-feeds [13]-[17]. Using single-feed structures to achieve a CP antenna is the simplest technique, but it has a limitation of narrow bandwidth. Meanwhile, multiple-feeds structures such as antenna arrays can give not only wide bandwidth but also high gain. These CP antenna arrays have obtained significant achievements. Still, higher gain, wider bandwidth, simpler structure requirements for FR1 bands have been a challenge in designing CP antenna arrays. This paper proposes a CP antenna array that consists of four dipole elements. Rogers 4003 C substrate is chosen to design the antenna because of low weight, low loss, and high hardness. The SR technique is applied for feeding network design using 90o phase-shifters and quasi-equal-amplitude to obtain the wideband CP antenna. Two CP modes of the antenna are obtained by changing the feeding point PIN- diodes element to avoid the loss and non-linear effect. The antenna achieves a CP with a degree of 51°, a

The rest of this paper is organized is being as. Section 2 presents the design of the 5G CP antenna as well as its simulated and measured results. The conclusion of the paper is in section 3. 2. 5G CIRCULARLY POLARIZED ANTENNA DESIGN This section presents the design of the 5G CP antenna including the antenna element, the antenna array, and the feeding network in subsection 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 respectively. The latest describes the simulated and measured results of the proposed antenna as well as the discussion and the comparison between the archived results and the publications. 2.1. Printed dipole antenna element The 5G printed dipole element with “J”-Balun is proposed in Figure 1(a) according to the theory in [17]-[22] but high gain and directional pattern. Thanks to achieving high efficiency, the dipole antennas are often chosen to design CP antennas. The antenna element is designed on Rogers 4003 C substrate with a dielectric constant of 3.55 and a height of 0.813 mm. On the one side of the substrate, the antenna includes a radiator with two arms and a ground for obtaining directional radiation and high antenna gain. On the other side, a “J” Balun is integrated into the feeding to ensure electricity balancing for two arms. Figure 1(b) illustrates the equivalent circuit of J-Balun for impedance studying. The radiator and Balun's detail dimensions are calculated similarly to the steps in [8]. The perfect matching is achieved when Lb =Lab =/4. The antenna is designed for the center frequency of 3.75 GHz. The parameters of the proposed antenna are calculated, optimized by CST software, and shown in Table 1. The antenna element prototype is presented in Figure 1(c). (a) (b) (c) Figure 1.

These figures are, (a) 3D radiation pattern of the proposed dipole element at 3.75 GHz, (b) Radiation pattern of the proposed dipole element at 3.75 GHz in E-plane and H-plane 2.2. Dipole antenna array CP antennas can be achieved by using single-feed or multiple-feeds structures as mentioned in section 1. Several techniques have been reported in recent decades such as dual-feed, mutual coupling and reactive loading, stacked, aperture coupled, and sequentially rotated [23]. The CP antenna arrays that use sequentially rotated feed network generate wideband, high gain, and CP radiation from a linear polarization [5], [14], [16], [24]-[25]. Figure 4(a) shows the structure of the CP antenna array with a total dimension of 80×80×40 mm3 . The antenna array consists of four above antenna elements, and the proposed feeding network presented in the next section (subsection 2.3). Two neighboring dipole elements are perpendicular, and all four elements are perpendicular to the feeding network. This configuration has the advantage of low mutual coupling between these elements in the antenna array. The antenna obtains a wideband CP by applying the SR feeding technique thanks to the feeding network. The excited phases feeding ports 2, 3, 4, 5 correspondings to four dipoles 2, 3, 4, 5 are arranged 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270° as shown in Table 2.

The HC is designed form on a conventional microstrip hybrid with four ports, as depicted in Figure 5. The operation principle of the HC in Figure 5 is depicted is being as. The input power at port 1 is divided into two equal parts to port 3 and port 4 with a 90-degree phase change between two outputs, and it is not transmitted to port 5. S parameter of the HC is presented in (1). Figure 5. Structure of hybrid coupler Figure 6 presents the S parameters and the phase changes between the two output ports of the HC in Figure 5. Figure 6(a) shows that the power at port 1 is divided into port 3 and port 4 while it is not transmitted to port 2 in operating bandwidth. It can be seen in Figure 6(b) that the phase difference tween port 3 and port 4 is 90o at the center frequency of 3.75 GHz. The 3dB BW of the HC at -10 dB is from 3 GHz to 4.5 GHz. These two HCs are integrated into the feeding network. The input power with 50-ohm impedance at port 1as shown in Figure 4(b) is splited to feed to four elements of the array. The dipole element feed impedance must be matched with feeding lines.

The Figure 7(a) that antenna bandwidth is about 1 GHz (3.27 GHz-4.36 GHz). The arguments of S21, S31, S41, S51 are approximately -6 dB at 3.6 GHz-4.0 GHz band. It means that the power entering port 1 is equally divided into the rest four ports with low loss. Therefore, the antenna array obtains the CP at the band of 3.65 GHz-3.93 GHz. The minimum Axial ratio (AR) of the antenna is below 2.5 dB at 3.6 GHz-4.0 GHz. It can be enhanced when the amplitude of excitation at all antenna element ports are the same. According to Figure 7(b), the phase delay between two inputs of dipole 2/dipole 1, dipole 3/dipole 2, and dipole 4/dipole3 is approximately 900 . This phase-difference is maintained at the band of 3.6 GHz-3.93 GHz. It explains why the CP antenna array has the CP at this band. (a) (b) Figure 7.

The antenna array bandwidth is increased by 16 % compared to single dipole antenna bandwidth. The CP antenna array has CP from 3.65 GHz to 3.93 GHz. The measured S11 reflection coefficient is well matching with the simulation results. Figure 8. CP antenna prototype Figure 9.

The Figure shows the antenna has a wide CP angle of 51° at 3.75 GHz. Figure 11 depicts the simulated AR and gain of the CP antenna array vias frequency. The array (AR) is less than 3 dB in the band of 3.6 GHz - 3.9 GHz (7.5%). It means that the proposed CP antenna array has high CP bandwidth of 250 MHz. This band’s peak gain is more than 10.66 dBi with a maximum value of 10.73 dBi at 3.75 GHz. The total radiation efficiency is up to 93.75%. At 3.75 GHz, the beam-width of circular polarization is 51°. Table 4 summarizes the results of several circular polarization antennas [5], [6], [16], [17] which have a wide bandwidth, a circular polarization, and a 3D structure. Our proposed design has a higher gain at the microwave frequency ranges than in [5], [6], [16], [17]. The proposed design has wider bandwidth and wider bandwidth of CP compared to [6], [16]. However, the total dimension of antennas in [16], is smaller than our antenna dimension. The smallest bandwidth antenna in [6] (BW=100 MHz) has the smallest size (0.32×0.32×0.12). It is depict that the more broadband antenna is, the bigger the antenna dimension is. The very high gain, CP, wideband, and low-profile are advantages of our proposed antenna. This antenna is
