Designing Slot Antennas in Finite Platforms Using Characteristic Modes

Wideband Planar Slot Antennas

Abstract ⎯ In this paper a printed dipole antenna and three slot antennas are designed to operate at 10 GHz for use in radar systems. A parametric study of each antenna and comparison between their radiation properties including return loss, bandwidth, directivity, efficiency and radiation patterns for 6-element linear array are introduced. Slot antennas show wider bandwidth, less coupling and ...

Design and Development of High Gain, Low Profile and Circularly Polarized Cavity-backed Slot Antennas Using High-order Modes of Square Shaped Substrtae Integrated Waveguide Resonator

In In this paper, two low profile, single fed cavity backed slot antennas providing a circularly polarized (CP) wave are introduced. One of the antennas presents a right-handed CP (RHCP) wave, while the other one offers a left handed CP (LHCP) wave. The proposed antennas consist of a square shaped Substrtae Integrated Waveguide (SIW) cavity incorporatng two couples of radiating slots to radiate...

Slot Cut Ultra Wide Band Antennas

The ultra wide band antennas are required in applications where larger bandwidth for the transmitting signal is needed. They cover wide bandwidth in the range from 500 MHz to the frequencies above 8000 MHz. In this paper, a review of various techniques to realize ultra wide band microstrip antennas (MSA) is presented. They are realized by using different techniques like basic planar monopole an...

Hybrid Methods in Designing Sierpinski Gasket Antennas

Sierpinki gasket antennas as example of fractal antennas show multiband characteristics. The computer simulation of Sierpinksi gasket monopole with finite ground needs prohibitively large computer memory and computational time. Hybrid methods consist of surface integral equation method and physical optics or uniform geometrical theory of diffraction is expected to alleviate this computational b...
