Flat-Plate Dipole Antenna for Wi-Fi 8 and 6G Operation
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research C, Vol. 156, 201-205, 2025
Abstract
A planar, short-circuited dipole design, constructed from cutting a flat metallic plate, capable of operating in the 2.4/5/6 GHz Wi-Fi 8 bands and also the 6G upper mid-band in the 7125-8400 MHz range is presented. The antenna comprises two folded dipole arms, each of which has a cut-out portion, with one short-circuiting portion connecting them. The plate dipole can operate at its 0.5-, 1.5-, and 2.5-λ resonant modes with two higher-order resonances forming a very wide 10-dB impedance bandwidth of about 5.0-9.4 GHz, easily covering the 5150-8400 MHz band for the 5/6 GHz Wi-Fi bands and the 6G upper mid-band. The design is simple in structure, has a compact size of 10 mm × 30 mm (0.08-λ × 0.24-λ at 2.4 GHz), and also shows good radiation performance. The design concept is elucidated and discussed in this paper with the numerical and experimental results.
