In this paper, a broadband inset-fed microstrip patch antenna operating at 10.525 GHz band was proposed. The proposed broadband inset-fed microstrip patch antenna consists of three narrow rectangular patches. At the center of the center patch, two symmetrical side patches were connected by a strip conductor and were arranged with their centers shifted in a perpendicular direction with respect to the center patch. For performance comparison, a conventional inset-fed square microstrip patch antenna was designed. Experiment results show that the frequency band of the measured input reflection coefficient with a voltage standing wave ratio less than 2 for the broadband inset-fed microstrip patch antenna was 10.036-11.051 GHz (9.63%), whereas that for the conventional inset-fed rectangular microstrip patch antenna was 10.306-10.772 GHz (4.42%). Therefore, the input reflection coefficient frequency bandwidth of the fabricated broadband inset-fed microstrip patch antenna was increased by 2.18 times, compared to the conventional inset-fed square microstrip patch antenna.

T-모양의 급전구조를 갖는 마이크로스트립 슬롯 안테나는 정합을 쉽게 이룰 수 있고, 대역 폭이 기존의 슬롯을 가로지르는 급전구조에 비하여 넓었다. 본 논문에서는 역 L-형 마이크로스트립 급전구조를 제안하여 FDTD(Finite Difference Time Domain)법으로 해석하여 안테나를 최적화 설계하였다. 슬롯 폭이 16 mm일 때, 전압 정재파비가 2.0 이하인 조건에서 대역폭은 2.3 GHz를 중심으로 약 48 % 정도의 광대역 특성을 얻었다. 제안된 급전구조는 기존의 슬롯 가로지르는 급전구조의 복사 저항보다 매우 낮았다. 또한 역 L-형 급전구조의 대역폭 특성을 기존의 급전구조의 슬롯릇 안테나들과 비교하였다.

General microstrip patch antenna has small bandwidth. If corner of a patch antenna is properly cutted to be triangular shape, then input impedance of patch antenna should be varied. Using this characteristic wideband patch antenna can be implemented. In this paper, wideband microstrip patch antenna operating in 2.4GHz ISM band is investigated through tracking variation of input impedance corresponding to cutting shape of patch antenna.

The design of broadband patch antenna with the new feeder structure is proposed in this paper. The antenna operates in the center frequency 5.8 GHz. Proposed the new feeder structure has also broadband characteristic and reduced antenna size. To confirm broadband characteristic, compared with probe feeder antenna. After designing and manufacturing, the antenna bandwidth enhanced by 34.5 % and the patch size reduced by 45 %.

We proposed a novel feed structure for a broadband circular slot antenna. The proposed antenna has a circular slot, a radiating element, and a novel microstrip feed structure which is composed of a 50 Ω microstrip feedline and a circular-shaped microstrip patch. This antenna is analyzed and optimized by using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. The impedance bandwidth of optimized antenna is 1.94 octave that is much broader than the conventional microstrip slot antennas.

In this paper, a microstrip slot antenna with a fork-shaped feedline is designed and fabricated. To obtain a broadband characteristic of a wide slot antenna a feedline is transformed into a shape of a fork, and a size of the slot and offset - length is varied. As the characteristics of the slot antenna as the function of design parameters are analyzed, a broadband microstrip slot antenna is designed. The microstrip slot antenna with a fork-shaped feedline is fabricated and its measured bandwidth is from 1.65 GHz to 6.20 GHz for VSWR$\leq$2.

In this paper, a technique for increasing the bandwidth of microstrip array antennas using the parallel coupled lines on a single layer is presented. Four types of wideband microstrip array antenna are designed and the characteristics of each type are analyzed. In addition, an iterative method using a distributed network is proposed to design the parallel coupled lines as a wideband impedance matching network. Measurements show that the proposed antennas provide wider bandwidths ∼1.7 times those of conventional microstirp array antennas, while the sizes of proposed antennal are the same as that of a conventional array. And low cross-polarization level can be obtained through symmetrical locations of the parallel coupled lines section

A wideband stacked patch antenna with parasitic elements, rectangular and triangle shaped patches, is proposed. Two different shaped parasitic elements are placed in the above of main rectangular microstrip patch antenna in order to achieve wide bandwidth for 860 MHz band. Coupling between the main patch and parasitic patches is realized by thick air gap. The gap and locations of parasitic patches are found to be the main factor of the wideband impedance matching. The proposed antenna is designed and fabricated on a ground plane with small size of $119mm{\times}109mm$ for application of compact transceivers. The fabricated antenna on an FR4 substrate shows that the minimum measured return loss is below -11.68dB at 824 MHz and an impedance band of 818~919 MHz(11.7%) at 10dB return loss level. The measured radiation patterns are similar to those of a conventional patch antenna with maximum gain of 2.11 dBi at 824 MHz.

This paper maximizes the research on broadband characteristics by using air layer instead of using microstrip structure of radiation part with U-shaped slot patched inside and microstrip antenna in order to make the microstrip antenna to have broadband characteristics. Experimental results show that the VSWR is 1.4 or less than the mobile communication frequency band(820~950MHz) and the gain of the antenna is 8.2dBd. This means that the antenna can be miniaturized, and it can be used in the wireless communication fields, and the mobile communication fields for other frequency bands in the future.

GPR은 건물의 크랙, 지중 매설물과 같은 정보를 수집하기 위해 좁은 펄스를 사용하므로 넓은 대역의 주파수 특성을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 광대역 특성을 가지는 안테나를 마이크로스트립을 이용하여 보우타이 형태로 설계하였다. 설계 기판으로는 $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=4.0, t=1.6 mm의 FR-4 유전체 기판을 사용하였다. 제작된 안테나는 S$_{11}$<-10 ㏈에서 10.62%의 대역폭을 가지고, 5.778GHz에서 -33.3 ㏈의 S$_{11}$과 1.04의 VSWR 값을 나타내었다.
