Planar inverted-F antennas loaded with very high permittivity ceramics

Effects of Substrate Permittivity on Planar Inverted-F Antenna Performances

This paper quantifies the gain and matching bandwidth variations of a planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) for several dielectric substrates. The performance of the PIFA is assessed in two configurations. First, the PIFA is studied with different substrates for a radiating patch of fixed dimensions of 4.92 cm x 2.13 cm. The effects of the dielectric constant of the perfect and lossy substrates on t...

Development of Wideband Planar Inverted-F Antennas for Wireless Application

Problem statement: Due to the rapid development in wireless communication, the antennas capable of broad-band operations are very demanding in cellular communications systems. Among various possible antennas, planar inverted-F antennas (PIFAs) have the advantages of low profile and compact size and are very suitable for present-day wireless communication application. Approach: This study demons...

Wideband Planar Inverted-F MIMO Antenna with High Isolation

A wideband planar inverted-F MIMO antenna with high isolation is proposed in this letter. The proposed MIMO antenna consists of two back-to-back planar inverted-F antennas and a forkshaped decoupling stub. The two planar inverted-F antennas are merged together with a shorting strip connected to the ground plane. In order to enhance the isolation, a fork-shaped decoupling stub connected to the g...

Enhanced Bandwidth Microstrip Patch Antennas Loaded with High Permittivity Dielectric Resonators

A novel technique fitr the bat dividth enhancement of conventional rectangular microstrip antenna is proposed in this paper. When a high permittivity dielectric resonator of suitable resonant frequency was loaded over the patch. the % bandwidth of the antenna was increased by more than five tunes without much affecting its gain and radiation performance. A much more improved bandwidth was obtai...
