Power patterns in the frequency domain are usually used to describe the antenna performance in narrowband communication systems; however, they are not sufficient for ultra wideband (UWB) antennas in wideband communication systems. In this paper, energy pattern and energy gain are introduced to describe the performance of UWB antennas. Numerical simulations and measurements are used to demonstra...

In this paper a dual band and high gain H-plane horn antenna implemented by substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) using a single layer thin substrate is introduced. The proposed antenna consists of five parts of rectangular waveguide with different width arranged in a staircase manner to allow mode combination of fundamental and higher propagating modes of the structure. By adjusting the length ...

A Compact planar slot antenna is proposed and developed for Ultra Wideband Applications. The antenna has compact size of 28 x 31 x 0.8 mm 3 . The antenna is fabricated with FR4 substrate and it is fed by Coplanar Wave Guide. The antenna is investigated experimentally to obtain required return loss, gain and radiation pattern characteristics. The antenna operates over a band between 3.1 GHz and ...

in recent years, the plasma antenna is a new technology for replacing the metal antennas that have been designed with better performance. in the steady state, the radiation pattern of a plasma antenna will be similar to the case of metallic antennas with the same form, size and performance at the same frequency and power. by sweeping the parameters in the plasma tube, we can change the operatin...

This paper represents design methodology of novel phased array antenna and its radiation pattern of 100 elements linear phased array for highly efficient microwave power transmission (MPT) which will be focused on ground based receiving station for microwave power transmission from Space Solar Power Satellite (SSPS) system.

The proposed low profile antenna is printed on a single layer dielect...

To create a next-generation mobile satellite communication system that offers large communication capacity, the onboard antenna system must be a multi-beam system consisting of a light weight 20-m class reflector and a light weight 100-beam class antenna feed system. We clarify that the antenna gain decrease created by the reflector surface distortion in orbit is relatively large. This paper pr...
