Parametric analysis of a broadband Archimedean spiral antenna with cavity

In this article an Archimedean spiral antenna is designed and analyzed that has good operation in broadband application. By analyzing this design, the effects that different parameters have on antenna operation will be studied and ways of optimization will be found.  Influences of cavity height and number of turns to obtain good matching and gain in a frequency interval of 4 to 18 GHz will be d...

an infinite planar array of rectangular microstrip patch antenna analysis

the methods which are used to analyze microstrip antennas, are divited into three categories: empirical methods, semi-empirical methods and full-wave analysis. empirical and semi-empirical methods are generally based on some fundamental simplifying assumptions about quality of surface current distribution and substrate thickness. thses simplificatioms cause low accuracy in field evaluation. ful...

Tappered Spiral Helix Antenna

This paper presents the aspects related to the design and development of a tapered spiral helix antenna covering the frequency range 1.2-18GHz. It is a compact stateof-the-art circularly polarized antenna, which works over multi-octave frequency bandwidth (1.2-18 GHz).The antenna size has been reduced by 50 percent with respect to conventional spiral antenna used for same frequency band. Spiral...

Modal Resistance of Spiral Antenna

This paper proposes a quasi-static conformal mapping analysis to analytically evaluate the input resistance of Archimedean spiral antenna at its radiation region. The deviation from the original constructs of band theory for two-wire spiral antennas leads to the concept of common slot-line mode radiation. The per-unit-length capacitance and the characteristic impedance of the quasi-TEM fundamen...
