Antenna is the key component in every wireless communication system. 5G becomes the latest technology trend and requires high performance antennas for efficient utilization. In this paper a novel slotted hexagonal patch antenna for 3.5GHz Sub-6 GHz 5G wireless applications is presented. The proposed antenna has novel slotted radiator along with modified ground plane with 25±20mm2 overall dimension. The proposed antenna developed on the FR4 substrate with dielectric permittivity of 4.4 and height of the substrate is 1.6 mm and loss tangent of 0.002 to achieve better performance. The proposed antenna simulated in an integral based solver simulation software called CST Microwave studio v2020 and obtained results such as VSWR 1.01, return loss -42.18dB with bandwidth of 130MHz, gain of 3.93dBi, Efficiency of 96.65%. This novel slotted hexagonal patch antenna is suitable for Sub-6 GHz 5G wireless applications which uses 3.5GHz resonant frequency.

In this paper a novel slotted hexagonal patch antenna for 3.5GHz Sub-6 GHz 5G wireless applications is presented. The proposed antenna has novel slotted radiator along with modified ground plane with 25±20mm2 overall dimension. The proposed antenna developed on the FR4 substrate with dielectric permittivity of 4.4 and height of the substrate is 1.6 mm and loss tangent of 0.002 to achieve better performance. The proposed antenna simulated in an integral based solver simulation software called CST Microwave studio v2020 and obtained results such as VSWR 1.01, return loss -42.18dB with bandwidth of 130MHz, gain of 3.93dBi, Efficiency of 96.65%.
