To achieve dual frequency operation for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications, a hybrid dual-band dielectric resonator antenna with serpentine slot fed by a microstrip line is proposed. The proposed antenna structure consists of cylindrical dielectric resonator and serpentine slot resonator. The serpentine slot is etched on the ground plane of the dielectric resonator antenna (DRA). By...

Yong-Woong Jang 33 A numerical simulation and an experimental implementation of T-shaped microstrip-fed printed slot array antenna are presented in this paper. The proposed antenna with relative permittivity 4.3 and thickness 1.0mm is analyzed by the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The dependence of design parameters on the bandwidth characteristics is investigated. The measured ba...

A uniformly spaced comb taper slot antenna array is proposed for directional ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. The UWB array consists of four identical comb taper slot antennas, a mutistage with four-way microstrip UWB power divider, and four identical coaxial cable lines. A maximum gain of 15.5dBi within the band is obtained when the element separation is properly selected. The uniform spacin...

Since the FCC has announced to allow the unlicensed use of the industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) frequency band by any potential users, wireless communications community has provided enormous opportunities for driving many wireless systems that can be communicated over short distances. For example, some practical applications are operated at the internationally available unlicensed ISM ...

A novel frequency reconfigurable slot antenna is designed for cognitive radio system. In cognitive radio system the two antennas are required one is a wideband antenna and another is frequency reconfigurable antenna. In this work a frequency reconfigurable slot antenna is designed between the switchable frequency range i.e 7.347.96 GHz at eight different frequency band and capable to operate si...

This study presents a compact broadband wide-slot antenna with left-hand circular polarization compatible both LTE 42 and 43 standards of 5G mid-band applications. The proposed is fabricated on an FR4 dielectric substrate overall dimensions $0.41\lambda _{o}\time...
