In this paper, we proposed a collinear antenna with a stripline structure for IEEE 802.11b/g applications in ISM (Industrial, Scientific, Medical) band of 2.4~2.5 GHz, which supplements disadvantages of COCO(Coaxial Collinear) antenna and OMA(Omnidirectional planar Microstrip Antenna). By using the proposed 4-layer substrate, we obtained improved performances and advantages in production compared with the existing antenna. In order to get antenna arrays, the same phase structure is designed by alternatively connecting outer conductor to inner conductor with ${\lambda}$/2 antenna element, and the substrate of FR4 epoxy (${\epsilon}_r$=4.4, tan${\delta}$=0.02) was used for the actual implementation. The maximum gain of about 4.93 dBi was measured, which leaded to a little improved gain of 0.33 dBi in comparison to the existing OMA structure.

In this paper, we proposed the internal antenna on PCB(Planar Circuit Board) for achieving WWAN(Wireless Wide Area Network) operation in the laptop computer. The proposed antenna has a metal structure instead of printed pattern on PCB to improve the antenna characteristics for GSM850/900 bands. Compared to PCB embedded antenna without metal structure, the proposed antenna occupies similar area of $74{\times}11{\times}0.5\;mm^3$ with before and the bandwidth of the proposed one for GSM850/900 bands is increased 13 MHz than before. Further we confirmed that the proposed antenna has higher radiation gain of -4.45~-2.29 dBi for GSM850/900 bands than PCB embedded antenna without metal structure.

In this paper, we proposed a slot-type antenna with microstrip feed embedded in a PCB for Zigbee communication (2.4 ~ 2.484 GHz). The proposed antenna is designed on a FR-4 substrate with dielectric constant 4.3, thickness of 1.6 mm, and size of 50×65 mm². Through simulations, trends of design parameters are analyzed and optimized, and the proposed antenna composed with three slots satisfy the frequency band. The measured impedance bandwidths (|S₁₁| ≤ -10 dB) of fabricated antenna are 900 MHz (2 ~ 2.9 GHz) in Zigbee frequency band. In addition, the radiation pattern showed omnidirectional characteristics for E and H-planes, and the gain of antenna in Zigbee frequency band was 1.782 dBi.

The 4 by 4 series slot sub-array antenna is proposed using substrate integrated waveguide(SIW) technology for 35 GHz of Ka band application. The proposed antenna is realized with multi-layered structure for compact size and easy integration features. 4 by 4 radiating slots are arrayed on top PCB with equal spacing and the feeding SIWs are arranged on middle and bottom PCBs for uniform power distribution. The multi-layered antenna is realized using RT/Duroid 5880 that has dielectric constant of 2.2 and the total antenna size is $750.76mm^2$. The individual parts such as radiators and feeding networks are simulated using full-wave simulator CST MWS. Furthermore, the total sub-array antenna also fabricated and measured the electrical performances such as impedance bandwidth under the criteria of -10 dB(490 MHz), maximum gain(18.02 dBi), sidelobe level(SLL)(-11.0 dB), and cross polarization discrimination (XPD)(-20.16 dB).

We propose a printed circuit board (PCB)-embedded antenna for millimeter-wave chip-to-chip communication. The antenna is 0.18 mm in height which is 1/20 wavelength at 80 GHz. In order to realize such a low profile, a zeroth-order resonator antenna with a periodic array of four unit cells is employed, and its geometry is optimized to cover an 8-GHz bandwidth from 76 to 84 GHz. With this;the antenna is capable of radiating in a direction parallel to the board length despite the short distance between the ground and the radiator. Simulation and measurement results show that the optimized design has low reflection coefficients and consistent radiation patterns throughout the target bandwidth.

This study presents the performance evaluation results of a 77-GHz waveguide slot array antenna that was fabricated by attaching a patterned printed circuit board(PCB) on a metal block. The 77-GHz waveguide was divided into a top plate and a bottom structure. The top plate was fabricated using a patterned PCB that can implement a fine slot at low cost. The top cover was then bonded to the bottom metal structure with a waveguide trough using anisotropic conductive film. For evaluating the antenna performance, a $1{\times}16$ slot array antenna was fabricated using our proposed method and the gain and pattern were measured and compared with the simulation results. Though the measurement results demonstrate a reduction in gain of around 2.3~3.5 dB compared to the simulation results assuming ideal bonding conditions, the pattern hardly changed and the slot antenna with a gain of approximately 17 dBi at 77 GHz can be easily manufactured at a low cost using the proposed method.
