Due to its small size, light weight, ease of integration, microstrip patch antenna is been widely applied to the fields of mobile radio, wireless communications, radar systems and so on. This paper presents a method of designing the millimeter-wave microstrip antenna which could be use in government and commercial applications, such as mobile radio and wireless communications that have similar ...

A compact planar inverted F antenna (PIFA) with a tunable frequency response is presented. Tuning of the resonant frequency is realized by loading a varactor on an embedded slot of the proposed antenna structure without further optimizing other antenna geometry parameters. The antenna exhibits a wide frequency range from 1570 to 2600 MHz with a good impedance matching (S11 ≤ -10dB) covering the...

Modern wireless and mobile communication systems requires antenna which should have light weight, low profile, low cost, and easy to be integrated with RF devices. This demand is completed by microstrip antennas. This paper presents rectangular microstrip patch antenna for WLAN applications designed using IE3D software. The microstrip antenna is designed with dielectric substrate as Rogers RT/d...

This paper reviews a method of evaluating the performance of mobile antennas that uses the theoretical expressions, proposed by the author, of the "Mean Effective Gain (MEG)" and the correlation coefficient between antenna diversity branches. Furthermore, the "Cross polarization Power Ratio (XPR)" measurement method, the directional statistical model of wave arrival in azimuth, and a simple met...

A compact and simple interdigital capacitor invertedF antenna (IFA) operated at its quarter-wavelength (λ/4) mode as the fundamental resonant mode for achieving multiband operation in the mobile phone is designed. The proposed antenna consists of a monopole antenna and an IFA. The proposed interdigital capacitor IFA has a simple structure of comprising two meandered radiating strips of length a...

the effects of mobile phone exposure on humans, due to its potential health hazards, have become the focus of interest since many years ago. the effect of global system for mobile communications (gsm 900 mhz) on growth and proliferation rate of mesenchymal stem cells was assessed at the different distances and intensities of radiation. a subscriber identity module (sim) card was inserted to thi...

This paper presents a novel electrical polarization tracking method for mobile satellite communication systems that use linear polarization. It consists of two main technologies; the first estimates the mobile station antenna’s relative polarization angle against that of the satellite’s onboard antenna, the second forms counter polarization against the estimated value. We use a Ku-band communic...

In this paper we investigate comparison methods of different geometric configurations of adaptive antenna arrays for mobile communications. The investigated antenna configurations were linear, semicircular, rectangular, wing and zigzag array. All considered antenna arrays consisted of seven antenna elements with an inter-element spacing of half wavelength. The Geometry macrocellular environment...

The fractal antennas that have the multiband operation due to the self-similar property in fractal geometry, which plays a key role to create a fractal circular monopole patch antenna. The other important property that is, Space-filling property which actually determines the reduction in the size of the antenna. This property adds more electrical length in less volume which reduces the size of ...
