چکیده

The diversity performance of the modurated scattering array antenna (MSAA) with various array spacing is measured in Rayleigh fading environment to investigate experimentally the relation between the array spacing and the diversity performance of the MSAA. A 2-element modulated scattering monopole array antenna with various array spacing which is supposed to be used for mobile handset applications is used as the measurement model. It is found that the diversity performance of the MSAA can be improved by reducing the array spacing as small as about 0.2 wavelength.

Phased array antenna using MEMS phase shifter

This article presents a phased array antenna employing MEMS phase shifter. The proposed phased array antenna consists of eight square patch antennas operating at 10.4 GHz with a bandwidth of 400 MHz. Feed line for each patch passes through a MEMS phase shifter realized by a series of bridges above the transmission line. The distance between the bridge and the transmission line underneath it is ...

Diversity performance of Modulated Scattering Antenna Array with switched reflector

1 Introduction The previous researches on the modulated scattering antenna array (MSAA) have shown that the second-order intermodulation scattering signal is relatively low compared with the direct received signal [1]. In this report, a switched reflector is used to solve this problem. The diversity performance of the MSAA with a switched reflector is investigated. It is shown that the diversit...

Modulated scattering array antennas for mobile handsets

A concept of modulated scattering array antenna is proposed based on the modulated scattering technique. The array antenna consists of one antenna element and several modulated scattering elements (MSE). The configuration of the array antenna is very simple because only one branch of the front-end circuit is required. It is shown by experimental investigations that a 3-element modulated scatter...
