A two-port antenna with high isolation for digital television system (DTV), global system for mobile communication (GSM), and universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) indoor applications is presented. The antenna consists of a disk loaded sleeve monopole antenna and an inverted-L plate antenna, which are combined into one radiation structure. In addition, by using a choke tube and C-sh...

The differential global positioning system (DGPS) transmits a GPS enhancement signal using a top-loaded monopole antenna in the medium frequency range. The top-loaded antenna in the medium frequency band can attain a radiation efficiency on the order of 10%. The antenna ground plane characteristics affect the antenna radiation efficiency. To improve the radiation efficiency, it is necessary to ...

In this paper, a novel dual band frequency reconfigurable antenna using an origami magic cube is proposed for wireless sensor network (WSN) applications. The proposed origami antenna consists of a meandered monopole folded onto three sides of the magic cube. A microstrip open-ended stub is loaded on the meandered monopole. The proposed origami magic cube can be mechanically folded and unfolded....

In recent days, the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) technology has widely used for wireless mobile devices such as handsets, notebook PCs and so on. In addition, Multi-antenna systems for handsets such as diversity and Multiple-input Multiple-out (MIMO) applications has developed, which are seen as the potential technologies for enhancing the performance and capacity wit...

Broadband planar monopole antennas have attracted their candidature for wideband applications like WLAN, WiMAX, RADAR, Satellite etc. Eventhough planar monopole antennas have several advantages in terms of cost, compactness, conformality, simplicity they suffer from a major disadvantage of having very narrow bandwidth. Various planar configurations such as circular, triangular, rectangular, hex...

We studied the far field radiation properties of a new resonator antenna composed of split ring resonators (SRRs) and a monopole. It is shown that the antenna size at the operation frequency (3.52 GHz) is approximately one tenth of the free space wavelength (λ/10). Moreover, increasing the number of SRRs yields steerability properties. These achievements provide a way to create rather small ste...

Abstract—In this paper, a planar monopole antenna for UltraWideband (UWB) communications with a notched behavior in the two sub-bands UNII1 and UNII2 of the Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) band is presented. The antenna geometry is described by means of a spline curve and a rectangular slot. Numerical and experimental results are reported to assess the effectiveness of the proposed design in...

Abstract—Impact of electromagnetic interference on front-end receiver behaviour is theoretically and experimentally studied outside the bandwidth of the antennas. Microwave chaotic generation is observed. Under certain conditions, reflected waves combined to the non linearity of the front-end receiver leads to a chaotic signal generation between the antenna and the front-end receiver. Different...

Abstract—In this paper we have developed a FDTD simulation code which can treat wave propagation of a monopole antenna in a metallic case which covers with PML, and performed a series of three dimensional FDTD simulations of electromagnetic wave propagation in this space .We also provide a measurement set up in antenna lab and fortunately the simulations and measurements show good agreement.
