In this paper, a dual frequency resonance antenna is analysed by introducing L-shaped slot in a semi circular patch, different parametric studies have allows and the results in terms of return loss and radiation pattern are given. It is observed that various antenna parameters are obtained as a function of frequency for different value of slot length and width; it is easy to adjust the upper an...

In recent years, the introduction of new indoor communication wireless protocols such as Bluetooth, IEEE 802.11b, and wireless local area networks (WLANs) has led to enormous challenges with respect to antenna designs for wireless communications. The newer WLANs, however, have to provide high-speed wireless connectivity between PCs, laptops, and other equipment in corporate, public, and home en...

In the present paper a three U-shaped slot loaded disk patch antenna is analysed by using circuit theory concept. The antenna shows dual resonance. The resonance frequency of single layer patch is found to be 1.84 GHz and 2.61 GHz (simulated 1.80 GHz and 2.61 GHz) whereas for two layers dielectric antenna, it is 2.21 GHz and 3.14 GHz (simulated 2.20 GHz and 3.13GHz) respectively. The frequency ...

A novel multiband multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna system is proposed. The MIMO antenna system consists of two antenna elements, each of which comprises of three radiators: a driven monopole, an S-shaped strip and an inverted F-shaped strip and occupies footprint of 15x18.5x0.8 mm3 only. The driven monopole acts as a quarter-wave monopole and stimulate higher mode resonance. The tw...

This paper presents a frequency reconfigurable inverted circular patch antenna with Uslot. The incorporation of U-slot in the circular patch provides a wide impedance bandwidth than conventional patch antenna. By introducing shorts at appropriate position on U-slot and on feed, antenna can be made resonant at two frequency bands (1.80GHz-1.98GHz) and (2.10GHz-2.68GHz) in two modes. The proposed...

A method is presented which is aimed at increasing bandwidth of the tapered slot antenna by just finding the optimum tapering profile of the antenna without the need to increase its size rather than decrease. In this paper, an ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna with a compact size of 16 mm x 20 mm is proposed for USB dongle applications. Theproposed antenna has been designed on FR4 substrate dielectr...

This paper presents an investigation of split ring resonator (SRR) parameters on a coaxial-fed monopole antenna. The adding of SRR slot can create a notch in the result of coaxial-fed monopole antenna design. Thus, this paper aims to investigate the effect of changes to the outer ring radius and slit cut width of the SRR slot. All antenna designs and simulations involved are drawn and simulated...

A compact rectangular slot antenna with single wide band-notched characteristics is proposed. This co-planar waveguide (CPW) fed antenna is suitable for ultra wide band (UWB), X-, Kuand K-band applications. The patch of the antenna is a modified rectangular slot with T-stub structure in an elliptical slot etched in the radiating patch. This T-stub structure creates wide band notched at WLAN and...

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...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common malignant tumors to affect the liver. Microwave ablation is efficiently used for treatment of liver cancer. Although surgical resection remains the gold standard for treatment of liver cancer, but only 5-10% patients are the candidates for surgical resection due to numbers of limitations. Because most patients with HCC can not be treated with su...
