Helical antennas have been a popular antenna configuration for various applications for its simple structure. This work describes the study on a novel, custom-shaped dielectric loaded helical antenna incorporated on an advanced material, which is Barium Strontium Titanate (BST). This material, which presents the researcher with an advantage in size reduction due to its high relative permittivit...

In recent years, the study of newer types of dielectric materials and compositions has been of great interest. The quest for new, innovative and easily obtainable dielectric materials that yield predictable and controllable permittivity and permeability values with very low dielectric loss has always been fruitful. New ideas and designs to implement these materials in microwave devices and stru...

This paper presents a novel structure of a frequency-reconfigurable microstrip antenna fed with an aperture-coupled technique and stacked patch technology. The proposed antenna design has a unique structure; the radiating elements (top and bottom patch) are sorted in stacked substrate layers to indicate the different operating frequencies. One PIN diode switch integrated at the feedline is reco...

The paper presents a triband circular polarized rectangular dielectric resonator antenna. A single coaxial cable feeds the DRA to double stub strip on side. patch coupled feed assists in widening bandwidth of proposed DRA. degenerate mode pair TE∂11x and higher-TE∂23x has been excited achieve CP enhance antenna gain. higher-order using low-cost simple excitation mechanism without compromising s...

In this paper, we propose a general design of rectangular microstrip antenna with and without rectangular aperture over ground plane, based on artificial neural networks (ANN) in conjunction with spectral domain formulation. In the design procedure, syntheses ANN model is used as feed forward network to determine the resonant frequency and bandwidth. Analysis ANN model is used as the reversed o...
