A stacked rectangular microstrip antenna with a shorting plate is proposed as a car antenna for dual band (VICS and ETC) operation in the ITS. The proposed antenna has the proper radiation patterns for the VICS and ETC. The antenna is small in size and effective in dual band operation. key words: stacked microstrip antenna with a shorting plate, dual band operation, vehicle information and comm...

An analysis of MIMO antenna system in the development of LTE (Long Term Evolution) terminal and the compensation of user’s induced loss is presented in this paper. MIMO wireless systems have antenna arrays at both the transmitter and receiver terminals. Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology has been regarded as a practical approach to achieve significant increase of wireless channel ...

The current as well as planned family of Army vehicles requires multiple antennas to meet the growing communications requirements and therefore exhibit a significantly large visual signature. Antenna size is dictated by frequency and the lower the frequency, the larger the antenna. At VHF and UHF frequencies, the primary military tactical communication bands, antennas have a significant visual ...

Ultra wideband (UWB) technology based on the use of very narrow pulses on the order of nanoseconds, covering a very wide bandwidth in the frequency domain, is one of the most promising solutions for future communication systems due to its high-speed data rate and excellent immunity to multipath interference. In this context, the antenna is one of the important components which determine the per...

Helical antennas have been widely used in a various useful applications, due to their low weight and low profile conformability, easy and cheap realization. Radiation properties of this antenna are examined both theoretically and experimentally. In this paper, an attempt has been made to investigate new helical antenna structure for Applications. CST MWS Software is used for the simulation and ...

In this paper, a microstrip patch antenna is studied and the results are simulated using IE3D simulator with an operating frequency of 3 GHz. The conducting patch can take any shape but the preferred configurations are rectangular and circular since the other configurations are parameters. IE3D is a Moment of Method Simulator which solves the Maxwell’s Equations in an integral form through the ...

This paper proposed a design scheme of wide band monopulse antenna system for the passive radar seeker (PRS) of anti-radiation missile (ARM). To save the installation space of the PRS, the conical conformal log periodic antennas (LPDA) are employed to form the monopulse antenna system. The specific implementation scheme of PRS based on the conically conformal monopulse antennas was designed and...
