This paper presents a new design of a CPW-Fed multi bands planar antenna. This antenna can be integrated easily with passive and active elements. The proposed antenna is suitable to operate for GPS, PCS and WiMAX bands. Its entire area is 52.3x52.6mm2 and is employed on an FR-4 epoxy substrate and fed by a 50 Ohm coplanar line. The antenna parameters have been analyzed and optimized by using AD...

In this paper a microstrip antenna on a suspended substrate with capacitive feed is presented. capacitive feed is created by a slot within the rectangular patch around the feed point. The proposed antenna exhibits a much higher impedance bandwidth of about 47% (S11 < −10 dB). Effects of key design parameters such as the air gap between the substrate and the ground plane, the gap width between r...

This paper presents an E-ring shaped printed monopole antenna for UWB applications with dual notched bands performance. In order to generate single frequency band notch function, we applied a U-ring shaped monopole antenna, and by inserting a rectangular ring in the centre of it an E-ring shaped radiating patch created and a dual band-notch function can be achieved. The measured bandwidth of th...

In vehicles such as e.g. cabriolets, some parts of the skin are made of plastics e.g. the trunk lid. This makes the integration of antennas into these relatively narrow integration volumes possible. Since the radiation characteristics of a single antenna are restricted by a variety of boundary conditions in such a narrow environment, the overall directional characteristics of the antenna part c...

fresnel zone plate antenna (fzpa) was considered as a recieving antenna. an expression of electric field on axis of antenna produced by an incidente plane wave was found . the expression was used for calculation of gain, efficiency and optimum phase correcting function. several fzpa are fabricated and tested. experimental and theoretical results were compared and it was shown that there was a g...

A top-to-bottom joined system consisting of a silver nanowire and nanospheres was fabricated by embedding silver nanospheres on a glass or silicon substrate on which 3-aminothiophenol as an analyte molecule was adsorbed, and then placing silver nanowires on the substrate to make gap sites between a nanowire and nanospheres. In the far-field Raman measurements, the sphere under the wire exhibite...

The use and development of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems has undergone substantial growth in the past decade in many new areas. Some of these areas include wire‐ less sensor systems, metamaterials and compact antennas [1-8]. However, much of this new growth has required more performance from traditional passive RFID systems. In particu‐ lar, the need for more compact antennas wi...

Abstract When corona discharge occurs around the wire, it will be accompanied by movement of space charge, and then generate effects such as radio interference audible noise. In order to reveal time domain characteristics electric field generated discharge, a set measurement systems for interference, including oscillator antenna, sampling resistance, data acquisition system, is developed. Based...
