Currently, communication system requires multiband small antennas for 5G
mobile applications. Driven this motivation, this paper proposes a multiband
patch antenna for Wi-Fi, WiMAX and 5G applications. The proposed antenna
can effectively operate at 2.4 GHz as Wi-Fi, 7.8 GHz as WiMAX and 33.5 GHz
as 5G communication purposes. The proposed antenna arrays have given directional
radiation patterns, very small voltage standing wave ratio, high gain
(VSWR) and directivity for each aforementioned systems operating frequency.
This antenna is made for multiband purpose which can be effective for not
only Wi-Fi and WiMAX but also 5G applications.
