In this paper, the design of a miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna using slots combining various types of fan-shaped structures was studied. To miniaturize the tapered slot antenna and make it operate at low frequencies, slots combining fan-shaped structures were added to the ground plane of the tapered slot antenna. The miniaturization design process of the final proposed antenna was systematically explained by comparing the input reflection coefficient and gain variations when each fan-shaped structure was appended, compared to when there was no slot. The proposed miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna using slots combining the fan-shaped structures was fabricated on an RF-35 substrate and its measured characteristics were compared with the simulation results. Experiment results show that the frequency band with a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than 2 was 2.59-11.39 GHz, and gain within the band was measured to be 3.3-7.0 dBi. The proposed miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna can be reduced in size by 36.9%, compared to when there are no slots in the ground plane.

This paper shows the design and fabrication of antenna embedded in marine buoy for marine IoT service, especially automatic identification system of fishing gears. Frequency band of proposed antenna has dual band of 433 MHz and 920 MHz considering marine IoT extension. Dual pattern monopole type for 920 MHz and meander type for 433 MHz are adopted in the proposed antenna. Voltage standing wave ratio is obtained 1.548 at 433 MHz and obtained 1.5 of mean value at 920 MHz band by measuring the fabricated antenna. The maximum antenna gain of 3.83 dBi is measured at 902 MHz among 920 MHz band, while antenna gain of 433 MHz is obtained 1.18 dBi. Although antenna gain of 433 MHz is low than 920 MHz band, this gain is larger than desired value of -5 dBi. And, it is confirmed that other measured values meet the performance criteria for archiving communication distance of 10 km between marine buoy and fishing ship in automatic identification system of fishing gears.

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.

This paper deals with the design and fabrication of a coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed super-wideband semicircular-disk-shaped dipole antenna operating in a frequency band of 2.4 GHz or higher. To feed the antenna, a CPW feed line was appended to the center of the lower arm of the semicircular-disk-shaped dipole antenna. For miniaturization, square patches were added to the ends of the two arms of the semicircular-disk-shaped dipole, whereas the slot width of the CPW feed line at the center of the dipole antenna was increased to improve impedance matching in the 5.4-6.3 GHz band. The simulated frequency band of the proposed antenna for a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than 2 was 2.369-30 GHz(170.7%), whereas the fabricated antenna was maintained VSWR less than 2 in the frequency range of 2.378-20 GHz when measured using a network analyzer operating up to 20 GHz so it can be applied as a super-wideband antenna for next-generation mobile communications.

In this paper, a broadband double dipole quasi-Yagi antenna using a 4×2 meander line array structure for maintaining 8 dBi gain was studied. The 4×2 meanderline array structure consists of a unit cell in the shape of a meanderline conductor, and it was placed above the second dipole antenna of the double dipole quasi-Yagi antenna. A double dipole quasi-Yagi antenna with generally used multiple strip directors was designed on an FR4 substrate with the same size, and the input reflection coefficient and gain characteristics were compared. Comparison results showed that the impedance frequency bandwidth increased by 6.3% compared to when using the multiple strip directors, the frequency bandwidth with a gain of 8 dBi or more increased by 10.1%, and average gain also slightly increased. The frequency band of the fabricated antenna for a voltage standing wave ratio less than 2 was 1.548-2.846 GHz(59.1%), and gain was measured to be more than 8 dBi in the 1.6-2.8 GHz band.

In this paper, we designed and implemented an ultra wideband (UWB) antenna with 5G mobile communication and WLAN bands rejection characteristics. The proposed antenna consists of a planar radiation patch with two slots, parasitic elements on both sides of the strip line and ground plane on back side. The upper n-type slot contributes for 5G mobile communication band (3.42~3.70 GHz) rejection and the lower n-type slot contributes for wireless local area network (WLAN) band (5.15~5.825 GHz) rejection. Parasitic elements were used in order to satisfy the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than or equal to 2.0 for UWB band (3.10~10.60 GHz) except two rejection bands. The Ansoft's high frequency structure simulator (HFSS) was used for antenna design and simulations. The simulated antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.36~3.71 GHz and 5.13 ~ 5.92 GHz in UWB band, and measured result for the implemented antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.40~3.72 GHz and 5.08~5.858 GHz. Simulated and measured VSWRs are less than or equal to 2.0 for all UWB band except dual rejection bands.

This paper presents the development of the 2-mode variable gain high power amplifier for a transmitter of INMARSAT-M operating at L-band(1626.5-1646.5 MHz). This SSPA(Solid State Power Amplifier) is amplified 42 dBm in high power mode and 36 dBm in low power mode for INMARSAT-M. The allowable error sets +1 dBm of an upper limit and -2 dBm of a lower limit, respectively. To simplify the fabrication process, the whole system is designed by two parts composed of a driving amplifier and a high power amplifier, The HP's MGA-64135 and Motorola's MRF-6401 are used for driving amplifier, and the ERICSSON's PTE-10114 and PTF-10021 are used the high power amplifier. The SSPA was fabricated by the circuits of RF, temperature compensation and 2-mode gain control circuit in aluminum housing. The gain control method was proposed by controlling the voltage for the 2-mode. In addition, It has been experimentally verified that the gain is controlled for single tone signal as well as two tone signals. The realized SSPA has 42 dB and 36 dB for small signal gain within 20 MHz bandwidth, and the VSWR of input and output port is less than 1.5:1 The minimum value of the 1 dB compression point gets 5 dBm for 2-mode variable gain high power amplifier. A typical two tone intermodulation point has 32.5 dBc maximum which is single carrier backed off 3 dB from 1 dB compression point. The maximum output power of 43 dBm was achieved at the 1636.5 MHz. These results reveal a high power of 20 Watt, which was the design target.the design target.

In this paper, the design of a double-dipole quasi-Yagi antenna (DDQYA) with a gain over 7 dBi at 1.70-2.70 GHz band is studied. The proposed DDQYA consists of two strip dipoles with different lengths and a ground reflector, which are connected trough a coplanar stripline. The length of the second dipole is adjusted to increase the gain in the low frequency band, whereas a rectangular patch director is appended to the DDQYA to enhance the gain in the middle and high frequency band. The effects of the length of the second dipole, and the length and width of the director on the antenna performance are analyzed, and final design parameters to obtain a gain over 7 dBi are obtained. A prototype of the proposed DDQYA is fabricated on an FR4 substrate, and the experimental results show that the antenna has a frequency band of 1.60-2.86 GHz for a VSWR < 2, and measured gain ranges 7.2-7.6 dBi at 1.70-2.70 GHz band.
