Abstract

An innovative magnetodielectric nanocomposite antenna is proposed for enhancing antenna parameters of monopole radiator by coplanar waveguide (CPW) feeding. A magnetodielectric nanocomposite radiator works in triband that covers the frequency band in WLAN, WiMAX and 5G. This compact antenna incorporates three radiating elements, whose total width is only 35% width of signal strip and length of the longer monopole is only 0.18 wavelength at its resonance frequency. To obtain a good impedance bandwidth for the triple band operation, two narrow rectangular patches (4 × 2 mm2, 4.5 × 1.5 mm2) are embedded in the two radiating elements of antenna. Carbon-coated cobalt (CCo) in coalesce with polyaniline (PANI) results in a magnetodielectric polymer-based nanocomposite. To enhance the antenna parameter the ‘L’ shaped slot upright to CPW ground, which is filled with PANI/CCo magnetodielectric nanocomposite. The resulting antenna produce good 10-dB impedance bandwidth of 0.43 GHz (2.30–2.73 GHz), 0.41 GHz (3.35–3.76 GHz) and 0.94 GHz (5.02–5.96 GHz) for entire WLAN/WiMAX bands are covered, 2.3–2.4 GHz inclusively 2.5–2.69 GHz 5G bands and 82% band width of 3.3–3.8 GHz 5G band are also included along with good radiation characteristics for entire triple band.
