In this study, a single‐fed printed multiband antenna for 4G/5G wireless communication systems is presented. The proposed multiband antenna consists of Franklin strip monopole antenna to cover 4G, and wireless applications (WLAN and WiMAX), and a rectangular patch antenna that is designed to cover 5G band. Furthermore, a modified compact microstrip resonant cell low‐pass filter is printed between the antenna parts to allow feeding the Franklin antenna at low‐frequency bands while isolating the Franklin antenna from the rectangular patch at the 5G band. The proposed antenna is designed on Rogers 5880 with compact size 45 × 40 × 0.508 mm3. The proposed antenna is utilised to operate at triple band: 2.4, 5.5 and 28 GHz with wide impedance bandwidth (15.8, 23.5 and 11.3%) and the gain reaches (1.95, 3.76 and 7.35 dBi).
