In this paper, a new rectenna is presented for the wireless transmission of microwave power using dipole antenna (Quasi Yagi effect) and rectifier of CPS resonator structure. The dipole antenna with CPW feedline has high peak gain than a general dipole antenna. A ground plane of CPW is used to reflect a dipole as a Yagi antenna. Therefore, the new rectenna receives the RF power better than the one using general dipole. A RF-to-DC conversion efficiency of 61 % using a 1.4 $k{\Omega}$ load resistor is obtained at 5.8 GHz.

In this paper, the ultra-widebend, microstrip patch antenna with the bandwidth of 3 GHz was implemented for ultra-wideband(UWB) wireless communication applications. In order to cover the very wide bandwidth of 3 GHz, a multi-resonance antenna was designed, each resonance frequency was separated into five frequency bend, 7.5, 8.1, 8.7, 9.3, and 9.9GHz with the interval of 600MHz BW. And for wideband characteristics of each antenna, U-slot antennas were designed at each center frequency. Designed five U-slot antennas were connected in series for multi-resonance of 3GHz BW and wideband matching was also designed for impedance matching transmission line calculated. The relative dielectric constant, the height, the loss tangent of the PCB substrate were ${\epsilon}_r=4.8,\;h=0.6$ and loss tangent=0.0009 respectively. The implemented antenna's radiation patterns and gain were directivity characteristics and $1.46{\sim}4.08dBi$ at the five separated center frequency.

In this paper, we present a small-sized and light weighted dual-band antenna for an access point of 2.4/5 GHz dual-band WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network). The antenna for WLAN should show the characteristic of omni-directional radiation pattern. First, to obtain the omni-directional radiation pattern the proposed dual-band antenna has an orthogonal inverted triangular type element at the center and locates four resonating elements symmetrically around it. Also, for the purpose of easy manufacturing and miniaturization of the antenna, we changed the central element which had the orthogonal inverted triangular type structure into the plate type. Measured $S_{11}$ for the proposed dual-band plate type antenna showed characteristic which was less then -12.8 dB for WLAN frequency bands. Measured results for the maximum gain showed 3.17 dBi at 2.44 GHz, 5.38 dBi at 5.77 GHz with omni-directional radiation pattern. The implemented antennas showed applicable performances for the access point of WLAN.

This paper reports on the design of a multiband multiple-input and multiple-output(MIMO) antenna for long-term evolution(LTE) vehicular communication and includes an analysis of the throughput field test results that were acquired by mounting the antenna to a vehicle. The antenna used for the field test was designed as a planar structure and included multiple stubs to obtain multiband resonant characteristics operating in the LTE(0.8~0.9 GHz, 1.7~2.2 GHz), Wi-Fi(2.4~2.48 GHz), and wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE)(5.8~5.9 GHz) frequency bands. For the field test, antenna prototypes were mounted on the dashboard and roof of a vehicle and connected to the experimental LTE modem. The data transfer rate(throughput), signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio(SINR), and reference signal received quality(RSRQ) were measured and analyzed in various real-world radio wave environments. Based on these results, the relationship between the SINR and throughput according to the field intensity is confirmed.

In this paper, we have proposed a hexagonal patch UWB antenna with a band notch characteristic where the notch band of 5.15 ~ 5.85 GHz band of WLAN was induced by inserting a circular slit in the patch. The impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna meet the band width criteria of UWB communication system where is mentioned as frequencies range form 3.1 ~ 11.8 GHz. The characteristic band at 5.2 ~ 5.8 GHz notch band was observed. The radiation pattern of the antenna shows a directinal radiation pattern at $0^{\circ}$ and $180^{\circ}$ in XZ-plane and YZ-plane is an omni-directional pattern, respectively. In addition, it is observed that increase in frequency results in increases of the antenna gain whereas the notch band section is decreased. The proposed antenna was designed TRF-45 substrate with thickness of 1.62 mm, a loss tangent of 0.0035, a relative permittivity of 4.5 and designed were used Ansys Inc. HFSS.

In this paper, 5.8GHz band $4{\times}4$ Butler matrix is designed using easily accessible commercial $90^{\circ}$ hybrid coupler and semirigid coaxial cable as a transmission line. This Butler matrix is very flexible to changes of antenna system specification like a frequency band because $90^{\circ}$ hybrid coupler changing is all to do. The result of design is the distance of $2{\times}2$ array antenna element is $\sqrt{2}{\lambda}/4$, the 4 beam directions are diagonal of array antenna and phase shifter is not necessary. The beam width is roughly $25^{\circ}$ narrower because of array antenna geometry and the side lobe is about 10dB higher partially than theoretical beam pattern. But the overall beam pattern is similar with theoretical beam. This Butler matrix can be applied to switching beam antenna of 5.8GHz band Wi-Fi and WAVE system.

The microstrip patch is divided into 3 pieces and each patch is connected to each other using a metal microstrip line. The fabrication process is simple and only one mask is needed. Two types of microtrip antennas are fabricated. Type A is the micros trip antenna with metal lines and type B is the microstrip antenna without metal lines. The size of proposed microstip antenna is $8^{*}12^{*}2mm^{3}$ and the experimental results show that the antenna type A and type B have the bandwidth of 420 MHz at 5.3 GHz and 480 MHz at 5.66 GHz, respectively.
