title = "Millimetre-wave T-shaped antenna with defected ground structures for 5G wireless networks",
abstract = "This paper presents a T-shaped antenna at millimetre-wave (MMW) frequency ranges to offer a number of advantages including simple structure, high operating bandwidth, and high gain. Defected ground structures (DGS) have been symmetrically added in ground in order to produce multiple resonating bands, accompanied by partial ground plane to achieve continuous operating bandwidth. The antenna consists of T-shaped radiating patch with a coplanar waveguide (CPW) feed. The bottom part has a partial ground plane loaded with five symmetrical split-ring slots. Measured results of antenna prototype show a wide bandwidth of 25.1-37.5 GHz. Moreover, simulation evaluation of peak gain of the antenna is 9.86 dBi at 36.8 GHz, and efficiency is higher than 80% in complete range of operation. The proposed antenna is considered as a potential candidate for the 5G wireless networks and applications.",
