Abstract

A low-profile, ultra-wideband beam steering spiral antenna array with complete coverage of mid-band 5G has been developed for aerospace applications. As 5G frequency bands have been allocated across the globe, the frequencies used by different regions has diverged (e.g. 3.4-3.8 GHz in the EU and 3.3...
