Electrically Small Supergain Endfire Arrays
The theory, computer simulations, and experimental measurements are presented for electrically small two-element supergain arrays with near optimal endfire gains of 7 dB. We show how the difficulties of narrow tolerances, large mismatches, low radiation efficiencies, and reduced scattering of electrically small parasitic elements are overcome by using electrically small resonant antennas as the...
متن کاملAn Efficient Metamaterial- Inspired Electrically-small Antenna
This article presents an inexpensive, efficient, and electrically-small antenna design that is based on a metamaterial-inspired structure driven by an electrically-small semi-circular loop antenna, which is coaxially-fed through a finite ground plane. The proposed antenna system is linearly scalable over a wide frequency spectrum. The design details and radiation characteristics of the antenna ...
متن کاملTowards Superdirective Beamforming with Loudspeaker Arrays
ABSTRACT In this paper, the superdirective beamforming principle as applied to loudspeaker arrays is investigated. Novel superdirectional beamformer designs (e.g. by Parra, [1]) offer significant spatial selectivity at low frequencies and allow for a small array aperture and some variability in loudspeaker positioning. The theoretical gains of superdirectional beamforming are generally difficul...
متن کاملA Criss-Cross Metamaterial Based Electrically Small Antenna
Metamaterials (MM) have been able to make their position strong in the world of electromagnetic in the past years. Researchers have come up with several novel shapes which behave as metamaterials. The characteristic parameters of permittivity ε and the permeability μ were extracted by doing several experimentations and found them to be negative. This paper presents such a new shape namely Criss...
متن کاملCharacterization of a Wideband, Low-q, Electrically Small Antenna
Using numerical and experimental techniques, a wideband, low-Q, electrically small antenna design is characterized as a function of frequency and the relati e phasing between antenna elements. The antenna demonstrates wideband operation, with a radiation Q approximately a factor of 20 below the Q-limit established by Chu for electrically small, omnidirectional antennas. 2000 John Wiley & Sons, ...
