Summary: | A wide range new technologies such as millimetre wave, massive MIMO technology, multi beam base station antenna are required in the fifth-generation (5G) mobile system. For multi beam base station application, a dielectric lens antenna is selected due to capabilities of achieving excellent radiation patterns in a wide angular range by applying the lens shaping method. A cylindrical structure is suitable for a lens antenna installation on the base station pole. In this paper, a cylindrical dielectric lens antenna is proposed and multi beam radiation patterns are investigated through the calculations by an electromagnetic simulator (FEKO) at the operating frequency of 28 GHz. As a result, good multi beam radiation patterns are achieved in the scanning angle from 0°to 30° with total gain reduction around 5dBi and antenna efficiency of about 95.9%. |
