Abstract:

The new upcoming 6th Generation (6G) communication marks a significant advancement in wireless and mobile networks, and it is expected to provide speeds that are potentially 100 times faster than the 5th Generation (5G) technology while offering extremely low delays, high data transfer, and enabling numerous devices to connect. The terahertz communicating antennas are the crucial components for high-speed communication systems, which offer extended coverage, high beam, directivity, and gain at wavelengths between 3 mm and 30 μm. In this paper, a novel multi-slot triangular copper microstrip patch antenna is designed with an operating frequency ranging from 1 THz to 5 THz. The antenna is designed, simulated, and analyzed using the Computer Simulated Technology (CST) studio suite, and the design consists of a microstrip patch, feedline, substrate, and ground plane. The simulation parameters, such as S-parameter, VSWR, resonant frequency, bandwidth, gain, electric and magnetic field, surface current, and diversity, are calculated. The simulation results of the proposed antenna predict the best suitability for the 6G communication system.

Keywords:
