A cooperative program between the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the National Bureau of Standards will result in the gain measurement of a horn antenna using three different techniques: a two-antenna insertion loss measurement, a pattern integration method, and a near-field measurement method. This article describes the application of the pattern integration method and also the evaluation of the...

In this paper, a compact setup for measuring the radiation pattern of an arbitrary positioned antenna above the sea surface is presented. The antenna of interest was a vertical half-wave dipole. Due to impracticalities concerning the measurements using seaborne platforms, the setup was based around a shallow pool filled with actual sea water. The transmitting antenna-under-test (AUT) and the re...

Abstract- In this article, the design of conformal antennas has been discussed using the characteristic modes (CM) method. For this purpose, the vector wave function(VWF) has been utilized to achieve a two-dimensional mapping of the conformal antenna. In designing and analyzing of cone-shaped antennas applicable for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems, the most important goal is to achieve ...

In this paper, a tapered slot antenna capable of ultra-wideband communication was designed. In the proposed antenna, rectangular slits were inserted to enhance the bandwidth and reduce the area of the antenna. The rectangular slit-inserted tapered slot antenna operated at a bandwidth of 8.45 GHz, and the bandwidth improved upon the basic tapered slot antenna by 4.72 GHz. The radiation pattern o...

An Ultra High Frequency (UHF) half-loop antenna used in Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems is proposed with a planar patterned metamaterial structure of compact size. The size of the planar patterned metamaterial structure is (0.20λ*0.20λ*0.0023λ) mm. This antenna consists of two metamaterial unit cells having negative permittivity and permeability. Simulation results of input return...

The characteristics of a dual-frequency compact antenna, which uses a rectangular microstrip patch with a shorting pin, are studied. Compared with the conventional rectangular patch antenna, this antenna can achieve both a significant reduction of antenna size and a dual-frequency operation with a single feed. A detailed parameter study is performed. The theoretical analysis is based on the fin...

A dual microstrip meander slot antenna is presented for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) application. The proposed antenna comprises a rectangular microstrip patch element embedded with two meander slots. The parametric study is performed to investigate the characteristics of microstrip patch antenna with double meandered slots compared to one without any meander slot. Microstrip patch antenn...
