Several wideband antennas are presented for either wireless application. This paper presents the performance of a simple monopole antenna loaded with an annular dielectric resonator as a wideband transmitting/receiving antenna. By adjusting the length of the monopole and load arm, a 10-dB bandwidth of 94% is achieved while maintaining monopole-like radiation pattern, which covers UWB applicatio...

In this communication, a low-cost circularly polarized wire antenna exhibiting improved gain performance for Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications is presented. The proposed antenna comprises a Y-shaped quarterwavelength monopole antenna surrounded by two iterations of eight conductive arched walls acting as para...

In this paper a microstrip transmission line fed compact monopole antenna for the wide-band (2. 5 GHz 11 GHz) communication system is designed and its performance is verified. In particular, we have simulated four types of wideband monopole antennas: rectangular, modified rectangular, circular and modified circular disk monopole antennas. Simple rectangular microstrip lines are used for feeding...

The design of a novel volcano smoke antenna for UWB indoor applications is presented. The design method is based on a general description for the geometry of UWB monopole antennas which is capable of producing most possible shapes for these antennas. It is also compatible with different optimization methods. In addition to a volcano smoke antenna, this method is used to design two optimized mon...

A high performance monopole antenna fabricated using a folded wire line and metal patch as radiator is presented. A prototype of the proposed monopole antenna with a compact area size is implemented, and the multi-band WLAN antenna shows a wide operating bandwidth of about 530MHz and 3400MHz for low band and high band, bandwidth, making it easy to cover the IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802....

Abstract—This paper presents a planar microstrip-fed tab monopole antenna for ultra wideband wireless communications applications. The impedance bandwidth of the antenna is improved by adding slit in one side of the monopole, introducing a tapered transition between the monopole and the feed line, and adding two-step staircase notch in the ground plane. Numerical analysis for the antenna dimens...

In this research work, a multibeam antenna which is a combination of a beamformer network (BFN) and a linear array antenna, has been designed. A Rotman lens has been chosen as beamformer network and Vivaldi antennas have been selected for constructing array antenna. The Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) was used for implementing Rotman lens. After explanation the structure of Substrate integ...

antenna structures with low side lobe levels are normally the main goal during antenna design. in this paper, a new method for reduction of radiation pattern side lobe level in phased array antenna with uniform and non-uniform weighting is presented. in this method, by changing the array elements weight or adding several elements, such as slc technique, the pattern with low side lobe level can ...
