ULTRA WIDE BANDWIDTH HIGH GAIN VIVALDI ANTENNA FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS

High Gain Vivaldi Antenna for Radar and Microwave Imaging Applications

An Ultrawideband (UWB) high gain compact Vivaldi antenna with end fire radiation patterns is presented for radar and microwave imaging applications. The antenna is operating for 2.9GHz to more than 11GHz with -10dB impedance bandwidth and is designed on low cost FR4 substrate of thickness 0.8mm. While designing the proposed antenna, initially a compact exponential tapered slot Vivaldi antenna i...

Omnidirectional Circularly Polarized Antenna with High Gain in Wide Bandwidth

A novel omnidirectional circularly polarized (CP) slot array antenna with high gain is proposed, which is based on the coaxial cylinder structure, and the orthogonal slots radi‐ ated the circular polarization wave around the cylinder. Further, the improved dual cir‐ cularly polarized (CP) omnidirectional antenna based on slot array in coaxial cylinder structure is presented too, and two ports a...

Ultra-wide bandwidth time-hopping spread-spectrum impulse radio for wireless multiple-access communications

Attractive features of time-hopping spread-spectrum multiple-access systems employing impulse signal technology are outlined, and emerging design issues are described. Performance of such communications systems in terms of achievable transmission rate and multiple-access capability are estimated for both analog and digital data modulation formats under ideal multiple-access channel conditions.
