Abstract

Multi-element array antenna design plays a vital role in digital wireless communications, present fifth-generation mobile communications, and non-terrestrial network or satellite communications. The aim and objective of this research are to differentiate the radiation characteristics on uniformly circular, planar, and linear arrays with centrally-fed microstrip patched antenna equally using 9-element array components. To improve the performance with high power transmission, reduced power consumption of user equipment, and enhanced spectral efficiencies antenna arrays are used as important components. The basic design theory and techniques are described and proposed. In this paper, 12 Giga Hertz are proposed in the design work of uniformly circular, planar, and linear array antenna systems operating frequency. They are typically focused on two main design objectives here: the radius of the array is a quarter wavelength and spacing between centers of arrays is the half wavelength of center frequency respectively. This research presents and demonstrates state-of-the-art uniform circular, planar, and linear arrays for mm-wave mobile stations, base stations, and low Earth orbit satellites with an emphasis on microstrip patched and circular shape type arrays. In this work, the performance is analyzed for 3 different types of antennas and a satisfactory performance is made possible by the exploitation of specific bandwidths to operate at a given signal-to-noise ratio as observed from Shannon’s theoretical capacities.
