  • In this paper, we have described a simple CPW-fed UWB antenna for wireless UWB communication. The proposed antenna consists of two symmetrical strips having two steps and CPW feeding. Two techniques(symmetrical structure, two steps) are used to produce good low-dispersion and impedance matching. The proposed UWB antenna has an omni directional radiation pattern, compact size, low dispersion, and low cost.

  • Topology management, which includes neighbor discovery, tracking and updating, is a key area that need to be dealt with appropriately to increase network performance. The use of directional antenna in Wireless Mesh Networks is beneficial in constructing backbone networks viewing the properties of directional antenna. The backbone links must be robust to obtain better network performance. In this paper, a simple yet effective topology protocol is presented that performs well compared to its predecessors. Our protocol constructs the topology with the constraints in the number of links per node. The full topology is constructed in two phases. The resultant topology is termed as Web-topology. The topology formed is robust, efficient, and scalable.

  • The C-band omni-directional antenna for drone control is mounted on the top or bottom and used to configure the communication link. The communication link is affected by the LOS depending on the mounting position of the omni-directional antenna. In this paper, two kinds of embedded antennas were designed with a commercial simulation tool CST MWS, and EM analysis was performed to consider the mounting environment. Also, we propose the PTMP ground antenna to control a large number of drones. The ground antenna has a communication link of 30km, and it consists of four sector antennas in the horizontal direction and one directional antenna at the top.

  • In this paper, a planar directional beam-switchable antenna with four orthogonal beam directions is proposed. The proposed antenna is designed with two crossed active elements and two parasitic elements for each direction. The design methodology is described on the basis of the Yagi-Uda method for the active and parasitic elements, respectively. By adjusting the effective electric lengths of the parasitic elements, the roles of a director and a reflector are exchanged with each other. The planar four-way beam-switchable Yagi-Uda antenna is implemented. From the experimental results. The proposed design method is verified for orthogonal radiation beam switching.

  • A cavity-backed two-arm spiral antenna for partial discharge diagnosis is presented. The proposed antenna consists of a two-arm Archimedean spiral, a tapered microstrip balun as spiral antenna feed, and a ring-shaped absorber-loaded cavity. The Archimedean spiral antenna is designed for the operating frequency band of 0.3 GHz to 1.5 GHz and fed by the tapered microstrip balun. The cavity is utilized to transform the bidirectional beam into a unidirectional beam, thereby enhancing gain. The ring-shaped absorber is stacked in the cavity to reduce the reflected waves from the cavity wall. The proposed antenna is designed and simulated using CST Microwave Studio. A prototype of the proposed antenna is likewise fabricated and tested. The measured radiation patterns are directional to the positive z-axis, and the measured peak gain is 8.13 dBi at a frequency of 1.1 GHz.

  • In this paper, the hybrid antenna utilizing epsilon negative zeroth-order resonance(ENG ZOR) and $TM_{010}$-mode is presented. The antenna has a directional radiation pattern and improved bandwidth. To obtain a ENG ZOR and $TM_{010}$-mode, the hybrid antenna employs the mushroom structure and the microstrip patch, respectively. Two antennas of the mushroom and the patch are coupled by gap and fed by one coaxial feed. The frequencies of ENG ZOR and of $TM_{010}$ resonance are designed to be 4 GHz and 3.9 GHz, respectively. Because two resonant frequencies are set to be close, the dual-resonance can be formed, resulting in the broader bandwidth. Even though the radiation pattern of an ENG ZOR antenna is omnidirectional, the directional radiation of a microstrip patch antenna compensates the null of omnidirectional pattern of an ENG ZOR antenna. Thus, the hybrid antenna has a directional radiation pattern. The antennas having 4, 3, and 2 unit cells of mushroom structure are designed and analyzed. The antennas have fractional bandwidths of 4.29~4.95 %, gains of 3.16~5.57 dBi, and radiation efficiencies of 62.4~94.2 %.

  • The mechanism of optical interaction of two nanoholes, milled in an opaque gold film, by means of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) propagation is investigated. The interaction depends on the polarization direction of the incident light when the nanohole pair is illuminated through uniform single antenna excitations. It is shown that by illuminating one of the nanoholes, under single antenna excitation, the other nanohole can be excited indirectly via propagated SPPs from the excited nanohole. In addition, it is found that the spectrum of electromagnetic power above the surface of the metallic film at an arbitrary point along the axis of the nanohole pair presents two resonant peaks. These peaks are due to the optical interaction between nanoholes, where the short- and long-wavelength peaks can be assigned to in-phase and antiphase interactions of magnetic dipoles relative to each nanohole, respectively. The magnetic coupled dipole approximation (MCDA) method confirms the simulation results.

  • In this paper, we consider a resource allocation scheme for millimeter wave-based wireless personal area networks using directional antennas. This scheme involves scheduling the reservation period of medium access control for IEEE 802.15.3c. Objective functions are considered to minimize the average delay and maximize throughput; and two scheduling algorithms-namely, MInMax concurrent transmission and MAxMin concurrent transmission-are proposed to provide a suboptimal solution to each objective function. These are based on an exclusive region and two decision rules that determine the length of reservation times and the transmission order of groups. Each group consists of flows that are concurrently transmittable via spatial reuse. The algorithms appropriately apply two decision rules according to their objectives. A real video trace is used for the numerical results, which show that the proposed algorithms satisfy their objectives. They outperform other schemes on a range of measures, showing the effect of using a directional antenna. The proposed scheme efficiently supports variable bit rate traffic during the reservation period, reducing resource waste.
