The effects of tuning the parameters of an annular-ring circular patch antenna with a cross-slot are analyzed and discussed. Then, based on this structure, a novel antenna with an electromagnetic bandgap cell system, which consists of a 4×4 annular-slot array in the groundplane, is designed and both numerically and experimentally evaluated. When compared to the annular-ring patch antenna on a g...

Proof of concept of a cavity backed slot antenna based on inverted microstrip gap ‎waveguide (IMGW) technology is presented. Since the antenna is operating based on the ‎first resonating mode of the cavity, it is more compact compared to the ordinary cavity ‎backed slot antennas in which the second cavity mode is used for radiation. Furthermore, ‎the proposed antenna element introduces lower lo...

An excitation technology of TE40 mode for substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) and its application in designing a slot antenna array is proposed. In order to excite the TE40 mode, a microstrip power divider and two coupling slots driven by microstrip lines in the longitudinal direction of SIW are designed to convert the electromagnetic field pattern from slot lines to SIW. The advantages of the...

A novel omnidirectional circularly polarized (CP) slot array antenna with high gain is proposed, which is based on the coaxial cylinder structure, and the orthogonal slots radi‐ ated the circular polarization wave around the cylinder. Further, the improved dual cir‐ cularly polarized (CP) omnidirectional antenna based on slot array in coaxial cylinder structure is presented too, and two ports a...

A dielectric rod antenna array fed by slot radiators without the use of metallic waveguide is presented here. Communication systems, especially those related to 5G, are moving up into mm-wave bands where metal losses can become significant and many traditional fabrication manufacturing techniques more difficult. Dielectric antennas (DRA) entirely made may be injection-molded or 3D-printed as so...

a newly designed printed slot antenna is presented that incorporates variable two band-notched functions for ultra-wideband (uwb) applications. the two band notches of this coplanar waveguide (cpw) fed antenna are achieved by an m-shaped slot (mss) embedded in the radiating element and a c-shaped strip(css) close to ground plane, therefore two very narrow rejected properties in the wireless loc...

The U-slot micro-strip patch antennas were originally developed for bandwidth broadening applications. This study presents a transmission line feed to modify the U-slot stacked rectangular micro-strip patch antenna for Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) communications. The modified antenna has a U-cut loaded with parallel slits and corner slots and is printed on a dielectric substrate of FR4 with relative p...
