Design and Analysis of High Gain Dual-polarized Dipole Antenna Based on Partially Reflective Metasurface
Keywords:
Dual-polarize, high gain, partially reflective metasurface (PRMS), quadrilateral bottom reflectorAbstract
A partially reflective metasurface (PRMS) structure is proposed for dual-polarized dipole antenna with a high gain and wide broadband. Stable radiation patterns are realized by using quadrilateral bottom reflector. The phase bandwidth of PRMS structure reflection presented in this paper matches well with the antenna operating bandwidth. The gain of the dualpolarized antenna is improved to 10.2dBi at 1.8GHz by adjusting the size and height of PRMS structure. Meanwhile, the bandwidth is expanded (61.2%). Measured result demonstrates that the antenna has a stable beamwidth which is desirable in base station applications. Furthermore, the designed antenna can be used for communication in complex environment because of its excellent performance.
