This paper first examines and corrects Storer’s theory of circular loop antennas, then investigates theoretically the proposed Ω-shaped loop-dipole antenna. Special emphasis is given to analysis effect higher-order terms Fourier series as a remainder on current distribution, input impedance, radiation patterns thin-wire It found that must be included in calculation distribution impedance but ca...

In this paper, the effects of antenna pattern and antenna polarization on indoor obstructed (OBS) wireless channels are investigated experimentally. Our results show that linearly polarized (LP) directional antennas are more effective in combating multipath components than other types of antennas in OBS channels, The measurement results are verified with a deterministic wide-band propagation mo...

fresnel zone plate antenna (fzpa) was considered as a recieving antenna. an expression of electric field on axis of antenna produced by an incidente plane wave was found . the expression was used for calculation of gain, efficiency and optimum phase correcting function. several fzpa are fabricated and tested. experimental and theoretical results were compared and it was shown that there was a g...

In order to satisfy the stringent demand for an accurate prediction of MIMO channel capacity and diversity performance in wireless communications, more effective and suitable models that account for real antenna radiation behavior have to be taken into account. One of the main challenges is the accurate modeling of antenna correlation that is directly related to the amount of channel capacity o...

The paper present a novel multi-band compact antenna designed on the theory of fractal geometry. The antenna is fabricated on a FR4 substrate. The performance of the proposed antenna design is analyzed and the results are compared with the simulations using IE-3D tool. The relevant antenna performance parameters of the proposed design viz. resonant bands, return loss, bandwidth and gain are rep...

In this paper, a novel CPW-fed antenna is presented for UWB applications. The antenna mainly comprises of a simple circular patch and a modified ground plane. The inclusion of two novel symmetrical rectangular slots with inner area of 3×2.8 mm2 to the top corners of the antenna creates a new path for the current and consequently leads to the bandwidth enhancement. A rectangular stub is also ado...

In this study, a radiation pattern reconfigurable microstrip antenna is designed and fabricated. The antenna’s radiation pattern is directed in 9 different angles by employing a radiating patch and embedding complementary split ring resonators (CSRR) on the ground plane. The radiating patch is of circular shape, while for CSRR elements both circular and rectangular shapes are investigated. The ...

In this paper, the design and implementation of plasma antenna array with beam forming is discussed. The structure consists of a circular array of plasma tube enclosed in a unipolar UHF band monopole antenna. Beam forming is possible by stimulated plasma tubes. The combination of the above antenna with plasma excitation controller makes a beam forming smart antenna. An experimental model in UHF...
