We report on the design and experimental demonstration of array-enhanced nanoantennas for polarization-controlled multispectral nanofocusing in the near-IR spectral range. We design plasmonic double bow-tie nanoantennas-coupled to multiple-periodic nanoparticle arrays to harvest radiation of designed wavelengths from a large spatial area and to focus it into a targeted nanoscale region. Near-fi...

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 this paper, a miniaturized coplanar waveguide fed (CPW-fed) tapered slot antenna (TSA) is introduced for breast cancer detection. Here, a modified CPW to slot-line transition structure with an air-bridge is employed to broaden the transition bandwidth and increase the radiation efficiency. Through these applied modifications, negative features of the original TSA (limitation of transition) a...

This paper proposes a millimeter-wave lens antenna using 3-dimensional (3D) printing technology to reduce weight and provide stable gain performance. The consists of four-layer cylindrical gradient-index (GRIN) fed by wideband Yagi antenna. We designed fractal cell geometry achieve the desired effective permittivity for GRIN lens. Among different candidates, honeycomb structure is chosen high m...

A multiband double square loop antenna with fractal concept is proposed. The design is based on an initial model of fractal geometry and a double square slot antenna structure. The initial model of fractal geometry influences to the second frequency band and it will be carefully investigated. The radiation patterns of the proposed antenna are still similarly to bidirectional radiation pattern. ...

Different fractal antennas based on aperture coupled feeding technique are studied, analysed and compared for size reduction, low profile, and good omini‐dirctional pattern suitable for RFID applications. The results are used as a guideline to propose modified fractal shapes patch antennas having lower size reduction parameters. All the designed antennas are bas...

A Planar antenna with Microstrip feed Sierpinski carpet fractal geometry for multiband applications is presented. The multiband behavior is analyzed through two fractal iterations. Self similarity property of fractal technology is applied in the antenna design to reduce the physical size, increase bandwidth and gain. The proposed antenna covers multi bands such as 1.8/5.59/5.78/6.4/6.63/7.84 GH...
