A Dual-Polarized 27-dBi Scanning Lens Phased Array Antenna for 5G Point-to-Point Communications

A dual-polarized 4 x 4 scanning phased array antenna with leaky-wave enhanced lenses operating at 28 GHz is presented. Such an antenna can be used for point-to-point fifth-generation (5G) communications that require high gain, wide bandwidth (BW), and limited steering ranges. The proposed array has a periodicity of two wavelengths, and the...
