Perancangan Beamsteerable Smart Antenna Dengan Konfigurasi Seri-Array Menggunakan Rangkaian Butler Matrix 4x4 Pada Frekuensi 28 Ghz
ABSTRACT
To address the increasing demand for cellular data service technology, Indonesia is implementing 5G technology as part of the IMT-2020 agenda. One of the recommended 5G frequencies is the high band frequency of 28 GHz. The 28 GHz frequency band has the advantages of wide bandwidth, high data rate, high capacity, and low latency. However, the high use of the 28 GHz frequency band has the consequence of high propagation loss, relatively short coverage distance (50-200m), and high attenuation. Therefore, the challenge in designing 5G antennas with the 28 GHz frequency band for base stations is to design antennas with high gain to anticipate the high propagation loss. By focusing high gain in one direction of directional radiation, it will provide a relatively longer coverage distance. This research designs a beam-steerable smart antenna using the CST Studio Suite software. The design uses a series-array antenna with 64 elements to produce a large centralized gain, and uses a Butler matrix circuit to control the angle of the beam radiation pattern. The substrate material used is RT Duroid 5880 with a thickness of 0.254 mm. The simulation results of the antenna have a working frequency of 28 GHz with a return loss ≤ -10 dB and a gain of 18.16-18.6 dBi. The beamsteering simulation results show that the antenna design is able to produce four consecutive beam angles of -7°, +20°, -20°, and +7°.
