In this paper, a two-dimensional slotline coupling structure is proposed for the planar active phased array antenna system with scanning the beam by coupled oscillators without phase shifters. The operating characteristics are analyzed and experimentally demonstrated. The proposed two-dimensional slotline coupling structure consists of $|{=}|$-type slotline in the ground plane for the coupling of E-plane and H-plane. From the simulation results of coupling strength with the variation of width, length and the number of slotlines, the optimal coupling structure is proposed and applied to $2{\times}5$ elements of planear phased array antenna. The experimental results show that the beamwidth of E-plane and H-pland are $42^{\circ}$ and $15^{\circ}$, respectivly, and the scanning range is from $-20^{\circ}$ to $15^{\circ}$ from the broadside. Therefore, it is shown the two-dimensional slotline coupling structure for oscillator-type active phased array antenna can be applied to the planar phased array antenna system.

Using symplectic relation and reaction concept, we propose a planar near-field antenna measurement method. A generalized probe compensation equation is deduced to obtain the probe correction formulation. To verify our approach, a reflector antenna with $1{\times}2$ horn array is fabricated and measured in the near-field measurement facility. The near-field measurement results are compared with the physical optics (PO) simulation. The results of measurement and simulation agree very well near to the mainbeam.

The signal intelligence (SIGINT) technology is actively used for collecting various data, in a number of fields, including a military industry. In order to collect the signal information and data and to transmit/receive the collected data efficiently, the accurate angle-of-arrival (AOA) information is required and communication disturbance from the interference or jamming signal should be minimized. In this paper, we present the structure of an adaptive beam-forming satellite system based on the planar array antenna, for collecting and transmitting/receiving the signal information and data efficiently. The presented adaptive beam-forming system consists of an antenna in the form of a planar array, an AOA estimator based on the Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm, an adaptive Minimum Variance Distortionless Response (MVDR) interference canceler, a signal processing and D/B unit, and a transmission beamformer based on Minimum mean Square Error (MMSE). In addition, through the computer simulation, we evaluate and analyze the performance of the proposed system.

In this paper, arranged the isotropic point source of N number with the structure which is identical with the receive area. And against the array structure which has the radiation pattern which is identical with the receive area it researched. The arranged the element space flees grating lobe and in order to set the characteristic of optimum with half-wave equally space it selects. After inducing the array factor of each array structure, it calculated a radiation pattern. As a result of, the radiation pattern of the each Planar array antenna with structure of the receive area was similar and the possibility of getting an beam characteristic it was.

In this paper, a novel diversity and directivity mode-switchable planar antenna array is proposed. For the diversity mode, four elements are unfolded on the plane and high isolation can be achieved. On the other hand, the antenna function is changed to the directivity mode when they are folded and stacked. Each element works such as a stacked Yagi-Uda antenna with high directivity. Especially, the curved feed line as well as the hybrid feeding method is used to improve performances. The simulation results agree well with measurement results and it is successfully demonstrated that two modes are properly working at 2.4 GHz.

In the wireless communication system based on an array antenna, the angle of arrival (AOA) information of signal is very important element and various AOA estimation algorithms have been studied. Although most AOA estimation algorithms employ the uniform linear array (ULA), some algorithms apply the planar array (PA) antenna. In this paper, we present an algorithm for efficiently estimating AOAs of adjacent multiple signals, based on the uniform rectangular array antenna. This approach has two steps; after approximately estimating AOA groups consisting of the closely located signal sources using CAPON, accurately estimating the individual AOA of each signal in the estimated AOA group using Beamsapce MUSIC. The estimation performance of the presented cascade AOA algorithm is illustrated through the computer simulation example.

The design, numerical simulation, and an experimental implementation of two-element cross-shaped microstrip line-fed printed slot array antenna for IMT-2000 at the 2.0 GHz band is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna with relative permittivity 4.3 and thickness 1.0mm is analyzed by the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method. It was shown that the measured 2.0 VSWR bandwidth of one-element microstrip slot antenna is from 1.42 GHz to 2.69 GHz, which is approximately 61.8% and that of two-element microstrip slot array antenna is from 1.42 GHz to 2.56 GHz, which is approximately 57.3% And it was shown that the measured gain of one-element microstrip slot antenna is 2.75 dBi and that of two-element microstrip slot antenna is 4.75 dEi. The antennas were fabricated and tested. The measured results are in good agreements with the FDTD results.

Generating electromagnetic waves with Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) properties is a fast-growing research subject in both radio and optics. This paper describes the generation of OAM carrying waves using a circular array of rectangular planar monopole antennas. The proposed design combines simplicity, compactness, and most importantly very wideband of operating frequencies (about 20-160 GHz, bandwidth ratio about 1:8) which makes it suitable for future applications.

In this paper, a technique for optimizing the sub-array system structure that can minimize the side lobe level of the phased-array antenna is proposed. Optimization of the proposed array antenna structure is to adjust the spacing between sub-arrays and sub-arrays by using a hexagonal array structure of one sub-array and a hexagonal sub-array for six hexagonal arrays, and thus the entire phased array antenna system of the radiation pattern was optimized. Compared to the 2-dimensional planar antenna system, the proposed technique maintains a gain of 24.3 dBi and a half-power beam-width of 8.46 degrees without change, and only reduces -3.4 dB and -6.5 dB in the x-axis and y-axis directions, respectively.

Recently, 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has developed sidehaul system to cope with the explosively increasing mobile data traffic. The sidehaul system is based on single carrier-frequency division multiple access (SC-FMDA) due to its low peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Also, antenna array is designed to support multiple input multiple output (MIMO) in a restricted space. In this paper, we design the antenna array about uniform linear array (ULA), uniform circular array (UCA) and uniform planar array (UPA), and analysis the performance in sidehaul system. In addition, we propose the novel hybrid receiver full suppression cancellation (FSC) to reduce the interference from neighbor cell in sidehaul system. The proposed receiver can suppress and cancel the interference by combining interference rejection combining (IRC) with successive interference cancellation (SIC).
