A novel monopole internal antenna for mobile handsets is presented. The antenna, called the MB antenna, is a modified monopole whose radiating element is implemented in parallel proximity of a ground plane hence allowing for use as an internal antenna in handset applications. Simulation studies indicate that the proposed MB antenna has superior performance over PIFA antennas commonly used in mo...

This paper presents a CPW-fed compact inverted L shaped microstrip antenna for wireless applications. The proposed antenna provides an omni directional radiation pattern and it utilizes the concept of coplanar wave guide (CPW). The main motive is to simplify the structure and to reduce the overall size of the antenna. This is done by loading the inverted L-strip over the conventional monopole p...

In recent days, the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) technology has widely used for wireless mobile devices such as handsets, notebook PCs and so on. In addition, Multi-antenna systems for handsets such as diversity and Multiple-input Multiple-out (MIMO) applications has developed, which are seen as the potential technologies for enhancing the performance and capacity wit...

A low cross-polarization slot array antenna in the narrow wall of ridge waveguide is presented. A non-angled slot which is created in the narrow wall of the ridge waveguide is considered to be used as radiating resonant slot. The normalized resistance and normalized reactance curves are presented for design purposes. A six element slot array waveguide antenna with ridges on its narrow wall is t...

A novel monopole-type antenna, which covers the bandwidth 3.1 10.6 GHz is presented. The shorted and folded planar monopole antenna is constructed by folding a thin copper sheet in such a way that one edge of the radiating element is connected to the ground plane. Simulated and measured results show suitable characteristics for communications systems using ultrawide-band (UWB) technology. Moreo...

In this work, 60-GHz wideband, compact vertically polarized end-fire monopole-based Yagi antenna-in-package is proposed for mobile devices. The antenna was arranged like a monopole array, and the size minimized by utilizing image effect. Advantages of structure include reduction bond-wire loss inserting cavity to make chip same height due For practical use, interconnected with CMOS via intercon...

This paper proposes a monopole antenna with photonic crystal structure as substrate for ultrawide band application with dual band notched characteristics.Improvements in all the main parameters of the antenna were obtained when using a PC.The measured results reveal that the presented dual band-notch monopole antenna offers a very wide bandwidth with two notched bands, covering 3.5/5.5-GHz WiMA...

detection of stealth targets calls for employment of high-power radars which itself relies on usage of high-gain antennas like large parabolic reflectors. in the past few years, using of an array with many small reflectors instead of a large reflector antenna has been considered. this method provides enhanced eirp by a factor of n2 where n is the number of array antennas. regarding improvement ...

A planar monopole antenna suitable for broadband wireless communication is designed and developed. With the use of a truncated ground plane, the proposed printed monopole antenna offers nearly 60% 2:1 VSWR bandwidth and good radiation characteristics for the frequencies across the operating band. A parametric study of the antenna is performed based on the optimized design, and a prototype of th...
