In this paper, we have designed, fabricated and measured a compact rectangular mono-cone antenna for ultra-wideband applications. The proposed antenna covers the entire UWB band (3.1 GHz $\sim$ 10.6GHz). The measured bandwidth is 8.2 GHz from 2.8GHz to 11 GHz for ${\mid}S_{11}{\mid}{\leq}-10dB$. From the measured results, the proposed antenna shows a good characteristics (linear phase, omni-directional pattern and very low gain variation) for UWB applications. Also, the measured results have a reasonable agreement with the simulated results.

본 논문에서는 분할 링 공진기(SRR; split-ring resonator)를 이용한 소형 이중 대역 슬롯 안테나에 대한 설계 방법을 연구하였다. 제안된 슬롯 안테나는 이중 대역 동작을 위해 SRR 도체를 직사각형 슬롯 내에 장하되었다. SRR 도체와 슬롯 사이의 간격, SRR 도체의 폭의 변화에 따른 입력 반사계수와 이득 특성을 분석하여 최종 설계 변수를 도출하였다. 2.45 GHz WLAN 대역과 3.40-5.35 GHz 대역에서 동작하는 이중 대역 슬롯 안테나를 FR4 기판 상에 $30mm{\times}30mm$ 크기로 설계하였다.

In this paper, a new method is suggested to reduce the size of a wide-band array antenna. The power-divider for the feeding structure is made compact as ${\lambda}/8$ with the help of a novel Metamaterial UWB bandpass filter. This power divider is clearly different from others in that the proposed design uses microstrip structured Composite Right and Left-Handed (CRLH) filters, while others use two dielectric layers or long tapered transmission lines. In order to validate the proposed design method, the circuit and full-wave simulated results of the power divider with the Metamaterial UWB filters are compared to each other, and the Metamaterial properties of the structure are shown with the electric field at the ZOR and dispersion diagram. Furthermore, the antenna performance of the fabricated antenna with the power divider is measured and compared with the prediction. Also, the size reduction effect by the proposed scheme is addressed.

본 논문에서는 CATR(Compact Antenna Test Range)을 위한 반사경 시스템으로 파라볼릭 원통형 복반사경 시스템을 해석하였다. 시험영역의 근접전계는 물리광학법(Physical Optics)을 적용하여 계산하였다. CATR은 균일한 평면파 제공을 위하여 최소한의 진폭과 위상 리플(ripple)을 가져야 하며 교차편파 또한 작아야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 부반사경의 위치와 시험영역의 위치에 따른 근접전계 패턴을 구하여 전계의 리플, 테이퍼와 교차편파를 고찰하였다. 본 논문의 해석결과는 파라볼릭 원통형 복반사경 시스템으로 구성된 CATR 설계에 충분히 이용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

무선 LA기 단말기 내부에 집적하기에 적합한 초소형 인쇄회고 형태의 안테나 개발을 위해 미앤더드 슬롯 안테나를 연구하였으며, 인쇄회로형 안테나의 협대역 특성을 개선하기 위하여 이중 미앤더드 슬롯 안테나론 제안하였다. FDTD 방법으로 수치 해석하였으며, 인계된 안테나의 측정치는 해석 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 측정결과, 단일 미앤더드 슬롯 안테나와 이중 미앤더드 슬롯 안테나의 대역폭(VSWR<2)은 각각 115MHz 와 164 MHz 이며, 단일 미앤더드 슬롯 안테나와 비교한 결과, 제안한 이중 미앤더드 슬롯 안테나의 대역폭이 43% 증가됨을 확인하였다.

In this study, we developed a co-located and space-shared multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna module with a modular design and high integration level. The proposed antenna pair includes a half-wavelength loop antenna and a dipole-type antenna printed on the front and back sides of a compact modular board. Owing to their modal orthogonality, these two independent antenna elements are highly self-isolated and free of additional decoupling components, even though they are assembled at the same location and within the same space. Thus, the proposed antenna is attractive in 5G MIMO systems. Furthermore, the proposed co-located and space-shared MIMO antenna module was employed in a 5G smartphone to verify their radiation and diversity performances. A 12 × 12 MIMO antenna system was simulated and fabricated using the proposed module. Based on the results, the proposed module can be employed in large-scale MIMO antenna systems for current and future terminal devices owing to its high integration, compactness, simple implementation, and inherent isolation.

A novel design of a compact square-ring slot microstrip antenna for achieving circular polarization (CP) operation is proposed and experimentally studied. By using an arrow-shaped slot structure as a radiating element, the resonant frequency of the proposed antenna is significantly lowered, which can lead to a large size reduction for fixed frequency operation. The CP radiation characteristics are achieved by loading with proper asymmetry, which can be placed diagonally. A prototype of the proposed design is implemented and its performance is measured. Measured results show that radiation patterns with good CP characteristics are obtained at the resonant frequency.

In this paper, the interference in small MIMO antennas having two identical composite right- and left-handed transmission-line(CRLH-TL)-based radiating elements is remarkably decreased. The radiating element has the broadside-capacitive coupling as well as slots to be equivalent to the CRLH-TL to prevent the size from increasing for an LTE high band. The suspended line bridging the two radiating elements is optimized to lower the interference between them down to -23 dB, while the overall MIMO antenna system is compact and its antenna performance is acceptable. The design is tested for 2.5 GHz.

In this paper, compact linear dual polarized series-fed $1{\times}2$ linear and $2{\times}2$ planar arrays antennas for airborne SAR applications are proposed. The proposed antenna design consists of a square radiating patch that is placed on top of the substrate, a quarter wave transformer and $50-{\Omega}$ matched transformer. Matching between a radiating patch and the $50-{\Omega}$ microstrip line is accomplished through a direct coupled-feed technique with the help of an impedance inverter (${\lambda}/4$ impedance transformer) placed at both horizontal and vertical planes, in the case of the $2{\times}2$ planar array. The overall size for the prototype-1 and prototype-2 fabricated antennas are $1.9305{\times}0.9652{\times}0.05106{{\lambda}_0}^3$ and $1.9305{\times}1.9305{\times}0.05106{{\lambda}_0}^3$, respectively. The fabricated structure has been tested, and the experimental results are similar to the simulated ones. The CST MWS simulated and vector network analyzer measured reflection coefficient ($S_{11}$) results were compared, and they indicate that the proposed antenna prototype-1 yields the impedance bandwidth >140 MHz (9.56-9.72 GHz) defined by $S_{11}$<-10 dB with 1.43%, and $S_{21}$<-25 dB in the case of prototype-2 (9.58-9.74 GHz, $S_{11}$< -10 dB) >140 MHz for all the individual ports. The surface currents and the E- and H-field distributions were studied for a better understanding of the polarization mechanism. The measured results of the proposed dual polarized antenna were in accordance with the simulated analysis and showed good performance of the S-parameters and radiation patterns (co-pol and cross-pol), gain, efficiency, front-to-back ratio, half-power beam width) at the resonant frequency. With these features and its compact size, the proposed antenna will be suitable for X-band airborne synthetic aperture radar applications.

본 논문에서는 5 GHz (5.15-5.35 GHz, 5.725-5.825 GHz) 대역 무선랜에서 사용이 가능한 소형 CPW 안테나를 제안하였다. 설계된 안테나는 계단 구조로 되어있으며 모의실험을 통하여 최적화된 파라미터 수치로 비유전율이 4.2, 두께가 1.0 mm인 FR-4 기판 상에 제작한 후 측정하였다. 측정 결과, 주파수 5.133-5.982 GHz에서 -10 dB 이하의 반사손실값을 얻음으로써 5 GHz 대역 무선랜의 주파수를 수용할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 크기는 $20.0{\times}16.0{\times}1.0mm^3$로서 기존의 폴디드 슬롯 안테나에 비해 약 67.17%의 크기를 감소시켰다.
