On-body Antenna with Parasitic Elements

Dual Band Slotted Patch Antenna for On/Off-body Communication

Body Centric Wireless Communication (BCWC) has been topic of much research in recent years. In this manuscript, a novel low-cost microstrip patch antenna is designed for on-/off-body communication with a dual-band operation. The proposed structure exhibits a monopole-like radiation pattern at 2.45 GHz and a broadside radiation at 4.8 GHz, simultaneously. Lateral dimensions of 42 mm × 46 mm and ...

Low Profile Wide Band Balanced Antenna Design for Mobile Applications

In this paper, wide band balanced antenna with enhanced bandwidth performance that covers the 850 to 3000 MHZ of Band, covering the GSM, UMTS, Bluetooth, GPS, & Wi-Fi applications is investigated[1-4]. This antenna was designed in HFSS which have low profile, linear phase and constant radiation pattern with proper return loss and resonant on multiple frequencies. This proposed antenna was then ...

Single Front-End MIMO Architecture with Parasitic Antenna Elements

In recent years, wireless communication technology has been studied intensively. In particular, MIMO which employs several transmit and receive antennas is a key technology for enhancing spectral efficiency. However, conventional MIMO architectures require some transceiver circuits for the sake of transmitting and receiving separate signals, which incurs the cost of one RF front-end per antenna...

A Stochastic Approach to Design MIMO Antenna with Parasitic Elements Based on Propagation Characteristics

This paper proposes a channel capacity maximization method for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antennas with parasitic elements. Reactive terminations are connected to the parasitic elements, and the reactance values are determined to achieve stochastically high channel capacity for the environment targeted. This method treats the S-parameter and propagation channel of the antenna, includ...
