A Symmetrical Dual-Beam Bowtie Antenna With Gain Enhancement Using Metamaterial for 5G MIMO Applications

A symmetrical dual-beam end-fire bowtie antenna with gain enhancement is achieved by integrating three pairs of metamaterial (MTM) arrays for 5G MIMO applications. The first pair of MTM array with high refractive index (HRI) are deployed to form a wide beam antenna. The second pair of HRI MTM array...
