The need for development of microstrip patch antennas for ultra-wideband (UWB) communications has been very well recognized.UWB antennas are mainly used for wearable MIMO sytems,weather mesurements and also UWB radar applications. Patch antenna can be a good choice for handheld devices in UWB applications.There was a great success in finding a suitable structure for mobile applications.This pap...

in this article, the linear array (with 20 elements in the horizontal orientation) of microstrip antenna is examined with horizontal polarization. the set includes three microstrip substrates. there is a power network in two lower substrates and microstrip patches in the upper substrate. excitation of patches has been done as coupled through the power network in two lower substrates. using the ...

In this paper we evaluate the performance of LTE-Downlink System with different Transmit diversity and Spatial multiplexing MIMO modes in LTE-downlink. Here we analysis performance on BLER-Block Error Rate and Data Throughput vs SNR-Signal to Noise Ratio. Two Transmit Diversity schemes Space Frequency Block Codes (SFBC) and Frequency Switched Transmit Diversity (FSTD) and two Spatial Multiplexi...

analysis of aperture-coupled microstrip antennas with a superstrate using space domain closed form greens functions is presented. integral equations are derived from applying the boundary conditions on the radiating patch, across the aperture, and on the microstrip feedline. the computation of space domain greens functions is performed using the closed-form. the solution of the integral equatio...

The study of Microstrip patch antennas have made great progress in recent years. Compared with conventional antennas, Microstrip patch antennas have more advantages and better prospects. They are lighter in weight, low volume, low cost, low profile, smaller in dimension and ease of fabrication and conformity. Moreover, the Microstrip patch antennas can provide dual and circular polarizations, d...

The transmission line model for the single and coupled microstrip line components implemented in APLAC are presented. A detailed description of the algorithm used to calculate the characteristic impedance and the effective permittivity is given for the single microstrip, the symmetrical and asymmetrical pair of coupled microstrip lines, and the n symmetrical coupled microstrip lines. The effect...

Regularly shaped compact microstrip antennas have a small size but their gain is insufficient for most applications. Therefore, a ring-shaped compact microstrip reflectarray with microstrip antenna feed has been proposed. Different configurations, namely, 1 × 3, 3 × 1, plus-shaped and 3 × 3 have been analyzed. The 3 × 3 configuration yields an optimum gain of 10. 8 dBi and a narrow beamwidth of...

Proof of concept of a cavity backed slot antenna based on inverted microstrip gap ‎waveguide (IMGW) technology is presented. Since the antenna is operating based on the ‎first resonating mode of the cavity, it is more compact compared to the ordinary cavity ‎backed slot antennas in which the second cavity mode is used for radiation. Furthermore, ‎the proposed antenna element introduces lower lo...

Various broadband multi-resonator gap-coupled configurations of equilateral triangular microstrip antenna and its compact variation, half equilateral triangular microstrip antenna, are proposed. The broadband proximity fed equilateral triangular microstrip antenna yields bandwidth of more than 650 MHz (~44%), whereas equivalent proximity fed gap-coupled half equilateral triangular microstrip an...
