A Novel Optically Transparent Array Antenna Using Conductive ITO Film and Integrated in OLED for mm-Wave 5G Applications
Résumé
In this article, an optically transparent array antenna, integrated in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), is proposed for mm-wave 5G applications. This antenna is designed by using the ITO film printed on a glass substrate with the measured optical transparency of 75 %. The proposed array antenna covers the 26 GHz (26.48-28.16 GHz) for the mm-wave 5G applications. The peak gain is increased from 5.94 dB to 8.4 dB by applying the array antenna technique. The spectral power distribution (SPD) of the OLED with and without antenna is measured in the visible spectrum. The OLED luminance decreased by 34 % after antenna integration. Therefore, to solve this problem and increase the optical transparency, the mesh technique will be used.
