  • In this paper, an implantable planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) for an artificial cardiac pacemaker is proposed. The antenna has a simple structure with a low profile and is placed on the top side of the pacemaker. The dimensions of the pacemaker system, including the antenna element, are $42{\times}43.6{\times}11$ mm. When the antenna is embedded in pig tissue, its $S_{11}$ value is -10.94 dB at 403 MHz and the -10 dB impedance bandwidth of the antenna is 6 MHz (399~406 MHz). The proposed PIFA in tissue has a peak gain of -20.19 dBi and a radiation efficiency of 1.12 % at 403 MHz. When the proposed antenna is placed in a flat phantom, its specific absorption ratio (SAR) value is 0.038 W/kg (1 g tissue). Performances of the proposed PIFA is sufficient to operate at the MICS band (402 ~ 405 MHz).

  • The Design and Optimization of a low-profile antenna for the Satellite Digital Audio Radio System(SDARS) using a Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm(NSGA) is presented. a fairly omni-directional elevation gain pattern over 60 degrees < q <60 degrees are obtained. The average value of the LCP gain pattern is approximately 2 dBic. The heights of the antennas are less than 0.251. The cross polarized signal level is approximately 12 dBic less than the co-polarized signal level.

  • 본 논문에서는 도체 판 대신 인공 자기 도체를 반사판으로 이용하여 방사 특성이 개선되고 두께를 줄인 PCS용 기지국 안테나 구조를 제안하였다. 반사판으로 도체 판을 사용하는 기존 기지국 안테나의 경우, 도체 판 끝부분에서 기생 방사가 발생하고 이는 안테나의 후방사를 증가시켜 기지국 안테나의 방사 특성을 악화시킨다. 하지만 인공 자기 도체를 사용하면 표면에서의 높은 임피던스에 의해 표면파가 억압되어 후방사를 크게 줄일 수 있다. 그리고 부엽 특성도 개선되어 서비스 지역이 겹치는 문제를 막을 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라, 인공 자기 도체 표면에서의 $0^{\circ}$ 반사 위상에 의해 기지국 안테나의 두께를 또한 줄일 수 있다.

  • A mobile antenna for multimedia communications with Ku-band geostationary satellite KOREASAT-3 and JSAT-2A is presented. The forward link of the satellite communication is 11.7 to 12.75 GHz, and the return link is 14.0 to 14.5 GHz. The mobile antenna is designed to be a stair structure using 24 active phased array elements in order to provide a low profile, and to be at a non-periodic array distance using the genetic algorithm. Also, the designed antenna uses the double beam forming method for stable satellite tracking. The fabricated mobile antenna is examined using various experiments to confirm its capability for practical application. From the measured results, the fabricated mobile antenna system is confirmed to have a good performance.

  • This letter presents the design of a small and low-profile RFID tag antenna in the UHF band that can be mounted on metallic objects. The designed tag antenna, which uses a ceramic material as a substrate, consists of a radiating patch and a microstrip line with two shorting pins for a proximity-coupled feeding structure. Using this structure, impedance matching can be simply obtained between the antenna and tag chip without a matching network. The fractional impedance bandwidth for $S_{11}$ <3 dB and radiation efficiency are about 1.4% and 56% at 911 MHz, respectively. The read range is approximately from 5 m to 6 m when the tag antenna is mounted on a metallic surface.

  • 본 논문에서는 UWB 센서에 응용 가능한 다층기판을 이용한 광대역 특성을 가지는 보우타이 안테나를 설계하였다. 제안된 소형 보우타이 안테나는 2층의 기판으로 설계 및 제작되었으며 전체 안테나의 두께는 4.5mm이다. 제안된 안테나는 보우타이 모양의 방사체와 평면형 발룬으로 구성된다. 설계된 방사체와 발룬의 간단한 연결로 안테나가 설계되도록 하여 다양한 구조로 쉽게 구현 가능하도록 하였다. 제작된 안테나는 6.8~10 GHz의 주파수 범위에서 3~6dBi의 이득을 가졌다.

  • 시누어스 안테나는 초 광대역을 요구하는 방향 탐지 시스템과 같은 응용에서 사용되는데, 안테나의 입력 임피던스가 높기 때문에 높이가 낮은 안테나 및 바룬의 설계에 애로점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 낮은 입력 임피던스를 얻기 위하여, Babinet's 원리를 이용하여, 2-18[GHz] 주파수 대역의 시누어스 안테나를 기존의 지수형 2-암 스트립 시누어스 안테나 대신에, 가장 큰 반경 $R_1=31.83mm$ 과 가장 작은 반경 $R_p=1.7mm$ 사이를 6개의 시누어스 셀을 균등한 등 간격으로 배치하는, 선형 2-암 슬롯 시누어스 안테나를 제안하고, 안테나 급전점에 $188{\Omega}$ 대신에 $80{\Omega}$의 임피던스로 급전 할 경우의 -10dB 대역폭을 해석하였다. 스트립인 경우 전 주파수 범위에서 반사 손실이 -10dB 이상이지만, 슬롯인 경우는 약 4-18[GHz] 범위에서 -10dB 이하의 반사 손실을 얻었다.

  • A low profile asymmetrical fractal boundary patch antenna based on reactive impedance surface (RIS) and a mushroom unit cell (MUC) is proposed and studied for dual band operation. The sides of the square patch antenna are replaced with asymmetrical half circled fractal curves for circular polarization operation at patch mode band. The fractal patch antenna is loaded with MUC for dual band operation. The antenna radiation characteristics are investigated and illustrated with both simulated and experimental results in detail. The 10-dB return loss bandwidth are 8.48% (3.21-3.49 GHz) and 2.59% (2.30-2.36 GHz) at upper and lower resonance frequencies, respectively. The 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth is 4.26% (3.21-3.35 GHz). A close agreement between simulation data with experimental results is observed.

  • An implantable CPW fed monopole antenna embedded into human tissue is proposed for ISM band biomedical applications. The proposed antenna is made compatible for implantation by embedding it in an alumina ceramic substrate (${\Box}_r=9.8$ and thickness=0.65 mm). The proposed antenna covers the ISM band of 2.45 GHz. The radiation parameters, such as return loss, E-Plane, H-Plane, are measured and analyzed, using the method of moments. The proposed antenna has substantial merits over other implanted antennas, like low profile, miniaturization, lower return loss, and better impedance matching and high gain.
