The authors propose a novel dual-wire antenna with balanced feed to increase 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth. comprises loop elements quasi two-sources, and the effects of element distance on bandwidth are revealed using method moments (MoM). It is found that has maximum 41% at 0.15 wavelengths, three times as wide an isolated element. Subsequently, changed quasi-balanced one L-figured parallel feed...

In this paper, we study a plasmonic horn nanoantenna on a metal-backed substrate. The horn nanoantenna structure consists of a two-wire transmission line (TWTL) flared at the end. We analyze the effect of the substrate thickness on the nanoantenna's radiation pattern, and demonstrate beam steering in a broad range of elevation angles. Furthermore, we analyze the effect of the ground plane on th...

This paper reports on a design technique for broadband high frequency wire antennas. The antennas are loaded with RLC circuit elements to achieve broad impedance bandwidth (for a desired VSWR) and possible high gain, through modifying the current distribution. These loads can be parallel RLC circuits optimized via Genetic Algorithm (GA) for maximum bandwidth. The GA iterative1y guides a populat...

Picture this: your mobile phone is lying on your desk, close to the speaker of your computer system. A few seconds before you receive a call or SMS message on your mobile phone, the speaker makes a buzzing noise. Is this clairvoyance of the speaker? No way. Here, the wire to the speaker acts like an antenna that picks up and amplifies the signal it receives from the mobile phone network. This i...

In this paper a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is presented to design a compact stepped triangle shape antenna in order to obtain the proper UWB bandwidth as defined by FCC. By changing the various cavity dimensions of the antenna, data to develop PSO program in MATLAB is achieved. The results obtained from the PSO algorithm are applied to the antenna design to fine-tune the bandwi...

Proof of concept of a cavity backed slot antenna based on inverted microstrip gap ‎waveguide (IMGW) technology is presented. Since the antenna is operating based on the ‎first resonating mode of the cavity, it is more compact compared to the ordinary cavity ‎backed slot antennas in which the second cavity mode is used for radiation. Furthermore, ‎the proposed antenna element introduces lower lo...

In this paper, a new method for designing an active dual-band dipole antenna is proposed. The operating frequencies of the proposed antenna are 150 and 450 MHz that are usually used in military applications. Using a series stub is the main idea in the proposed dual-band antenna, where it makes an independent resonance frequency higher than the main resonance frequency of a conventional dipole. ...
