Abstract
In this study, a dual-band Quasi-Yagi reconfigurable binomial weighed phased array design is proposed for the unlicensed Wi-Fi and planned 5G band for European Zone. The analytical calculations, numerical simulations, and experimental analysis are done. The antenna array operates at 2.45 and 3.6 GHz. By analog beamforming and the binominal weighting, the antenna has three distinct main lobes for each corresponding phased configuration with reduced sidelobes. The simulations are done on the High-Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS), and experimental measurements are carried out on the fabricated prototype. The numerical and experimental results are presented.
