Abstract

In this paper, a design method to obtain a band rejection characteristic in the 2.4-2.484 GHz WLAN band is studied for a series-fed dipole pair (SDP) antenna operating in the band of 1.7-2.7 GHz for mobile communication base station applications. The band rejection characteristic is achieved by inserting U-shaped slots on the coplanar strip line connecting the two dipole elements of the SDP antenna. The effects of the location and dimension of the slots on the rejection band characteristics are examined. The optimized SDP antenna with WLAN band rejection is fabricated on an FR4 substrate and the experimental results show that the antenna has a desired band rejection performance with a frequency band of 1.65-2.78 GHz (51.0%) for a VSWR < 2, and a rejection band of 2.39-2.54 GHz.

본 논문에서는 1.7-2.7 GHz 대역에서 동작하는 이동통신 기지국용 광대역 직렬 급전 다이폴 쌍 (SDP) 안테나에 대하여 2.4-2.484 GHz 무선랜(WLAN) 대역에서 저지 특성을 가지기 위한 설계 방법을 연구하였다. 대역 저지 특성은 SDP 안테나의 두 다이폴 소자를 연결하는 코플래너 스트립 선로 상에 U자형 슬롯을 삽입함으로써 얻을 수 있다. 슬롯의 위치와 구조에 따른 저지 대역의 특성 변화를 분석하였다. 최적화된 WLAN 대역 저지 SDP 안테나를 FR4 기판 상에 제작하고 특성을 실험한 결과 VSWR < 2 인 대역은 1.65-2.78 GHz (51.0%) 이고, 저지 대역은 2.39-2.54 GHz로 원하는 대역 저지 성능을 갖는 것을 확인하였다.
