Millimeter-wave multi-mode circular antenna array for uni-cast multi-cast and OAM communication

Abstract This paper investigates uni-/multi-cast and orbital angular momentum (OAM) mode data transmission in orthogonal directions by the utilization of a new circular antenna array, operating at 28 GHz. In the horizontal plane the proposed antenna array operates as multimode transmitter (i.e., it...
