| Annotation | With the rapid advancement of 5G wireless networks, there is a growing need for compact, high-performance antennas capable of operating across multiple mm-Wave bands. Microstrip patch antennas are ideal for 5G handsets due to their low profile and ease of integration. However, achieving high gain, wide bandwidth, and efficiency in a compact form remains challenging. This paper presents a decagonal quad-band microstrip antenna designed for operation at 28, 38, 45, and 60 GHz. The antenna, constructed on an Arlon AD 255C substrate (12 12 0.66 mm3), incorporates three slits to enhance impedance matching and radiation performance. Simulated results show bandwidths of 1.6, 2.5, 5, and 15 GHz with peak gains of 5.9, 7.8, 7.5, and 7.4 dBi, and efficiency ranging from 81.7 % to 93.5 %. The proposed antenna offers compact size, high gain, and multiband operation, making it a strong candidate for integration into next-generation 5G mobile devices. |
