A novel CPW-fed antenna capable of triple-band operation for WLAN/WiMAX applications is presented and investigated in this paper. The proposed antenna simply consists of three elements viz. folded open stub, L-shaped open stub, and Y-shaped resonator. By using the three elements, triple-band antenna operating at 2.5/3.5/5.5 GHz can be achieved. The antenna impedance bandwidths for |S11| ≤ −10 d...

A Comparison of THz power radiated from dc biased SWCNT, Graphene and Palladium thin films is performed. By controlling the bandwidth using an edge-fed or center-fed antenna, we aim to indirectly probe the radiation mechanism by measuring the total radiated power. The main goal is to compare the measured power with a standard Nyquist thermal noise model.

In this paper, a novel multiple slot microstrip patch antenna with enhanced bandwidth is presented. The design adopts contemporary techniques namely; probe feeding, inverted patch structure and multiple slotted patch. The composite effect of integrating these techniques and by introducing the novel multiple shaped patch, offer a low profile, wide bandwidth, high gain and compact antenna element...

There has been a flourishing prospect of UWB technology in recent years in both communication and other purposes like microwave imaging and radar applications. Recent studies of UWB antenna structures are specially concentrated on microstrip [1], slot and planar monopole antennas [2]. In this work, a small monopole antenna with diamond shape of the patch (30 x 26 mm2) printed microstrip fed mon...

In this paper, two miniaturized (20 × 20mm2) coplanar waveguide fed slot antennas are proposed. Both the antennas are characterized by ultra wide impedance bandwidth while one of them has an additional narrow band near 2.5GHz. The radiating element of the proposed antennas is a modified rectangular geometry which is excited by a 50 ohm line. The slot in the ground plane is stair case shape for ...

A novel design of a CPW fed printed monopole antenna for dual polarization applications is proposed in this paper. The monopole is formed of a rectangular patch embedded with a hour-glass shaped slot. In a modified version of the antenna, an additional spiral shaped slot is incorporated in the ground plane. The overall dimensions of the antenna are kept at 40× 40mm. The impedance bandwidth achi...

In this paper, a novel design of CPW-Fed defected substrate microstrip antenna is presented. The proposed antenna shows wideband applications by choosing suitable defected crown shape substrate. Defected shape substrate also reduces the size of the antenna. The radiating patch of proposed antenna is taken in the form of extended U-shape. The space around the radiator is utilized by extending th...

In this article, a printed triangular-shaped monopole antenna is proposed for emerging ultrawideband application. The proposed antenna uses a triangular radiating patch which is directly fed by a 50-X microstrip feed line. To improve the impedance bandwidth, a round-corner ground plane has been used. To further improve the impedance bandwidth for the entire band, a microstrip transition (near t...

This paper proposes the design and simulation of a rectangular microstrip patch antenna for hyperthermia applications. Using electromagnetic simulations we optimized the dimensions of a probe-fed patch antenna design for operation at 2.45 GHz. This antenna is having the thickness of 1.6mm FR-4 substrate, is a probe feed and has a full ground plane. It has been used as hyperthermia applicators i...
