  • In this paper, a high gain, broadband planar vivaldi antenna (PVA) by utilizing a broadband stripline feed is developed for wireless communication for IoT systems. The suggested antenna is designed by attaching a tapered-slot construction to a typical vivaldi antenna, which improves the antenna's radiation properties. The PVA is constructed on a low-cost FR4 substrate. The dimensions of the patch are 1.886λ0×1.42λ0×0.026λ0, dielectric constant Ɛr=4.4, and loss tangent δ=0.02. The width of the feed line is reduced to improve the impedance bandwidth of the antenna. The computed reflection coefficient findings show that the suggested antenna has a 46.2% wider relative bandwidth calculated at a 10 dB return loss. At the resonance frequencies of 6.5 GHz, the studied results show an optimal gain of 5.82 dBi and 85% optimal radiation efficiency at the operable band. The optometric analysis of the proposed structure shows that the proposed antenna can achieve wide enough bandwidth at the desired frequency and hence make the designed antenna appropriate to work in satellite communication and medical internet of things (M-IoT) healthcare applications.

  • In this paper, Tapered slot antenna of IR-UWB was Designed and fabricated using HFSS and we suggest the beam width of the broadband antenna using group-delay and fidelity. For this purpose, acquired data from the Network Analyzer was analyzed in the time domain by using the chirp-Z transform and Simulation was conducted and confirmed with the CST microwave studio. Analysis of the antenna radiation pattern is the antenna separation at intervals of 0.5 metres and then transmit antenna is fixed and the receiving antenna 360 degree intervals of 10 degree each, The results of the analysis are as follows, and analyzer of the fidelity of the antenna's performance. An analysis of more than 90 percent of the cases is less than ${\pm}40$ degrees in good fidelity, more than 90% less than ${\pm}40$ degrees and lowe fidelity. In conclusion, Analysis of Beam width of wideband antenna with more precise is possible through using these radiation pattern using fidelity.

  • This paper describes a wideband double dipole quasi-Yagi antenna fed by a microstrip-to-slotline transition. The transition feed consists of a microstrip radial stub and a slot radial stub, each with the same angle of $90^{\circ}$ but with different radii, to achieve wideband impedance matching. Double dipoles with different lengths are utilized as primary radiation elements to enhance bandwidth and achieve stable radiation patterns. The proposed antenna has a measured bandwidth of 3.34~8.72 GHz for a -10 dB reflection coefficient and a flat gain of $6.9{\pm}0.6$ dBi across the bandwidth.

  • In this paper, a method of designing a Vivaldi type phased array antenna (PAA) which operates at S-band (2.8-3.3 GHz) is presented. The presented antenna uses broadside coupled split ring resonators (BC-SRRs) for high isolation, wide field of view, and good active S-parameter characteristics. As an example, we design a $1{\times}8$ array antenna with various BC-SRR structures using theory and EM simulations. The antenna is fabricated and measured to verify the design. With the BC-SRR implemented between the two radiating elements, the isolation is shown to be enhanced by 6 dB, up to 23 dB. The scan angle is shown to be within ${\pm}53^{\circ}$ based on a -10 dB active reflection coefficient. The operation of the scan angle is possible within ${\pm}60^{\circ}$ with a little larger reflection coefficient (-7 dB to -8 dB). The proposed design with BC-SRRs is expected to be useful for PAA applications.

  • A 8$\times$4 microstrip antenna array is designed at 5.3 GHz and its characteristics are investigated with respect to the application in dual polarized synthetic aperture radars. The design is focused on the achievement of a wide bandwidth, a high polarization purity, a low loss, a good isolation and some mechanical requirements suitable for the application. The antenna is fed by a -3 dB tapered feed network, and is composed of dual polarized SSFIP (Strip-Slot-Foam-Inverted Patch) elements with honeycomb and shielding plane. Simulation results for the antenna array are presented and compared with measurements. It is observed that the antenna shows a bandwidth of 80 MHz, a polarization isolation better than 20 dB, an isolation of 40 dB, and good mechanical characteristics.

  • A new type of a Rotman lens is presented in this paper fur millimeter-wave applications, such as collision avoidance radar. A dielectric slab Rotman lens is proposed to reduce the conductor loss and to create an appropriate farm for favorable implementation at millimeter-wave frequency. The proposed lens consists of a dielectric slab and slot lines whereas the conventional lenses are constructed with parallel conducting plates. The dielectric slab Rotman lens excited in TE$\_$0/ mode shows a high degree of confinement for the fields, low dispersion, and has an appropriate feed structure. A prototype lens has been designed and fabricated with 9 beam ports and 9 array ports together with 9 tapered slot antennas. This lens has been tested in the range from 10 GHz to 15 GHz and the measured beam widths are about 15$^{\circ}$ at 13 GHz. The measurements also show low mutual coupling between beam ports and an efficiency of about 34.6 %. The overall performance is comparable to that of conventional Rotman lenses even though the prototype was tested at lower than desired frequencies in the microwave frequency range due to our limited resources for fabrications and measurements. It is expected that at millimeter-wave frequency the dielectric slab Rotman lens will have lower conductor loss and lower mutual coupling than conventional Rotman lenses.an lenses.
