A Low-Profile Dipole Array Antenna with Monopole-Like Radiation for On-Body Communications

A New Design of Log-Periodic Dipole Array (LPDA) Antenna

This paper presents a new approach for design of the log-periodic dipole array antenna (LPDA) based on using of different design parameters in the LPDA elements to control the antenna behavior. In the proposed procedure, the design parameters can control the value of forward gain over the operating frequency range, and also adjust the gain flatness. Furthermore, this design procedure can decrea...

A Novel Small E–Ring Shaped Monopole Antenna with Dual Band-Notch Function for UWB Wireless Communications

This paper presents an E-ring shaped printed monopole antenna for UWB applications with dual notched bands performance. In order to generate single frequency band notch function, we applied a U-ring shaped monopole antenna, and by inserting a rectangular ring in the centre of it an E-ring shaped radiating patch created and a dual band-notch function can be achieved. The measured bandwidth of th...

dual band slotted patch antenna for on/off-body communications

body centric wireless communication (bcwc) has been the topic of much research in recent years. in this manuscript, a novel low-cost microstrip patch antenna is designed for on-/off-body communications with a dual-band operation. the proposed structure exhibits a monopole-like radiation pattern at 2.45ghz and a broadside radiation at 4.8ghz, simultaneously. lateral dimensions of 42 mm × 46 mm a...
