Abstract

A wideband planar glass antenna with a stable antenna gain is presented in this paper. It consists of a vertical planar glass and a differential feeding structure. The planar glass is used as a radiator, while the differential feeding structure leads to symmetric radiation patterns. The glass antenna operates in a traveling-wave mode. With a small size of 0.50 × 0.06 × 0.76 λ03, it achieves a wide 10-dB impedance bandwidth of 58.15% (1.61-2.93 GHz), alongside a stable antenna gain of 5.5 dBi (where λrepresents the vacuum wavelength at the central operating frequency). To validate the design, a prototype operating for Long-Term Evolution (LTE) bands was fabricated and measured. The measured results revealed a 10-dB impedance bandwidth of 60.79% (1.50-2.81 GHz). This wideband glass antenna can be used for vehicle communication systems. © 2024 IEEE.
