A coplanar waveguide‐fed flexible antenna for ultra‐wideband applications

This paper presents a novel ultra‐wideband (UWB) antenna printed on a 70 μm thick flexible substrate. The proposed antenna consists of a hybrid‐shaped patch fed by coplanar waveguide (CPW). The ground planes on opposite sides of the feeding line have different height to improve antenna bandwidth. Simulation shows that the proposed antenna maintain wide bandwidth when changing its substrate's thickness and dielectric constant, as well as bending the antenna on a cylindrical foam. The proposed antenna is fabricated in laboratory with a simple and low‐cost wet printed circuit board (PCB) etching technique. Measured bandwidths cover 3.06 to 13.58, 2.8 to 13.55, and 3.1 to 12.8 GHz in cases of flat state and bent with radii of 20 and 10 mm, respectively. Measured radiation patterns show the antenna is omnidirectional in flat and bent cases.

In this communication a 2 × 2 dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) array is proposed with a wideband frequency response. An air bridgeless coplanar waveguide (CPW) power divider network is first time used to feed the 2 × 2 DRA array. Four rectangular DRAs are used as array element and exited in TE₁₁₁ mode by four slots at the end of the CPW lines in the feed network. The straight CPW phase delay line in feed network is further meandered resulting an enhanced radiation performance. The proposed DRA array exhibits a wideband response with an impedance bandwidth of 16% while maintaining a stable broadside radiation pattern with the gain range from 8 to 9.4 dBi. The proposed design is fabricated and measured, reaching good agreement with simulation results.     

Design guidelines for single and dual wide band leaky periodic microstrip line antennas

Leaky wave antennas using periodic microstrip lines are natural choices for versatile beam scanning applications. In this work, a shorted stub and an open stub are simultaneously used in the same unit cell to generate resonant frequencies dependent on the stub dimensions. Placing one such resonant frequency at the second Bragg stop band, a single wideband response is obtained. Next, the stub lengths are tuned to obtain two resonant frequencies which are placed at the second and fourth Bragg stop bands, respectively to obtain a dual wideband response. Design guidelines are outlined for obtaining these wide bands and corresponding radiation regions. Two such geometries with single and dual‐band nature are fabricated. The single wide‐band antenna has a pass‐band from 5.89 to 11.57 GHz with a beam scanning range of ?56° to 33°. The dual‐band antenna has two pass‐bands radiating in the frequency range 5‐6.5 GHz and 10.7‐14.7 GHz. Beam scanning range in the first pass‐band is ?72° to ?5°. The second pass‐band, in part, demonstrates a dual‐beam nature with the forward beam scanning from 28.9° to 54.5° and backward beam scanning from ?54.5° to 14.76° as the frequency varies from 12 to 14.5 GHz.     

New Compact antenna based on simplified CRLH‐TL for UWB wireless communication systems

This letter presents the experimental results of a novel planar antenna design which is synthesized using simplified composite left/right‐handed transmission‐line (SCRLH‐TL), which is a version of a conventional composite left/right handed‐transmission‐lines (CRLH‐TL), however, with the omission of shunt‐inductance in the unit‐cell. SCRLH‐TL exhibits a right‐handed response with nonlinear dispersion properties and a smooth Bloch‐impedance distribution. Arranged within the inner slot of the antenna are three smaller rectangular patch radiators. Each patch radiator is embedded with an E‐shaped notch, and located in the antenna conductor is a larger E‐shaped notch next to the 50‐Ω termination. The E‐shaped notches constitute SCRLH‐TL property. The gap in the slot between the smaller patches and the conductor next to the larger E‐shaped notch determines the impedance bandwidth of the antenna. The dimensions of the smaller patches determine the radiation characteristics of the antenna. The antenna is excited using a conductor‐backed coplanar waveguide transmission‐line. The antenna covers a bandwidth of 7.3 GHz between 0.7 GHz and 8GHz, which corresponds to 167.81%. In this band, the antenna resonates at 4.75 GHz and 7 GHz; the gain and radiation efficiency at these frequencies are 4 dBi—80% and 3.6 dBi—73%, respectively. The antenna's performance was validated through measurement. The antenna has dimensions of 0.0504λ₀ × 0.0462λ₀ × 0.0018λ₀, where λ₀ is free‐space wavelength at 700 MHz. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Planar UWB antenna with modified slotted ground plane

A compact coplanar waveguide‐fed (CPW) monopole antenna for ultra‐wideband wireless communication is presented. The proposed antenna comprises of a CPW‐fed beveled rectangular patch with a modified slotted ground. The overall size of the antenna is 30 mm × 27 mm × 1.6 mm. The lower edge of the band is attained by properly decoupling the resonant frequencies due to the extended ground plane and the beveled rectangular patch of the antenna. The upper edge of the radiating band is enhanced by beveling the ground plane corners near the feed point. Experimental results show that the designed antenna operates in the 2.7–12 GHz band, for S₁₁ ≤ ?10 dB with a gain of 2.7–5 dBi. Both the frequency domain and time domain characteristics of the antenna are investigated using antenna transfer function. It is observed that the antenna exhibits identical radiation patterns and reasonable transient characteristics over the entire operating band. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Design of wideband antenna with band notch characteristics based on single notching element

In this article, a coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed planner monopole antenna with a compact size of 0.32λ × 0.30λ × 0.0056λ mm³ is presented. The radiator is fed with 50 Ω CPW feed line that provides impedance matching from 1.7 to 30 GHz for VSWR ≤2. In addition, three narrow bands are filtered out in the ultra‐wideband (UWB) range. The narrow notched bands are filtered for WiMAX (3.52‐4.2 GHz), WLAN (5.04‐5.40 GHz), and X band (8.22‐9.10 GHz) application. The rejecting bands are achieved by loading a single tri‐square ring resonator (SRR) on the backside of the feed line. The dimensions of SRR control the notch resonance frequencies. A single‐, dual‐, and tri‐notch frequencies have been achieved by using single‐, dual‐, and tri‐SRR, respectively. The measured results of antenna structures in the absence and presence of the SRR are compared with the simulations. The measured results validate the proposed design.     

Reconfigurable wide band circularly polarized antenna array for WiMAX,C‐Band,a and ITU‐R applications with enhanced sequentially rotated feed network

In this article, a wide‐band circularly polarized slot antenna array with reconfigurable feed‐network for WiMAX, C‐Band, and ITU‐R applications is proposed. Different novel methods are used in proposed array to improve antenna features such as impedance matching, 3 dB axial‐ratio bandwidth (ARBW), gain, and destructive coupling effects. Miniaturized dual‐feed square slot antenna, with one attached L‐shaped strip and a pair of T‐shaped strip at ground surface for improving impedance matching and circular polarization (CP) purity, is presented. For further enhancement of CP attributes, reconfigurable sequentially rotated feed network is utilized to obtain wider 3 dB ARBW. Furthermore reconfigurable property of network gives controlling Right and Left handed CPs, respectively. Finally, a special form of Electromagnetic Band gap structure is employed on top layer of substrate that provides high isolation between radiating elements and array feed network to enhance overall performance of antenna. The measured results depict 3 dB ARBW from 4.6 to 7.2 GHz, impedance bandwidth from 3.3 to 8.8 GHz for VWSR<2, and peak gain of 10 dBi at 6 GHz. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
