Jakarta, Feb. 13 -- The Telecommunications Research Center (PRT) of the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) is developing microstrip antennas for sixth-generation (6G) communication network technology.

BRIN PRT researcher Yohanes Galih Adhiyoga stated in Jakarta on Friday that the current research focuses on single-layer and multilayer microstrip antennas.

These antennas are designed to be compact for integration into mobile phones.

"We cannot have an antenna whose dimensions exceed the size of the phone itself. Therefore, the antenna must be designed as small as possible to fit inside the device," Adhiyoga said.

He noted that antenna design requires precise calculation, as a single device must house multiple components for...
