A short-ended electromagnetically coupled coaxial dipole array antenna is investigated theoretically. The antenna has an advantage of structural simplicity. The integral equations are derived for the proposed structure by use of the Fourier transform and mode expansion, and the simultaneous linear equations are obtained. The slot electric field and strip current are obtained by solving the simultaneous linear equations. The effects of slot and strip numbers on the radiation efficiency, beamwidth and directivity gain of the antenna are presented.

This paper presents a design of RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) tag antenna which is available for a vehicle's side mirror and directivity characteristics by mr body. The proposed Tag antenna is designed symmetrical structure to improve the broad bandwidth characteristic and the readable range. A proposed tag antenna($30\;mm{\times}24\;mm{\times}1\;mm$) has resonant frequency at 910 MHz and bandwidth is 780 MHz ($540\;MHz{\sim}1320\;MHz$). The chip impedance is the 16 - $j131\;{\Omega}$ and the complex conjugate impedance of commercial chip has been used for tag antenna design. In order to evaluate effects of tag antenna for side view mirror's permittivity as well as car body(conductor), radiation pattern characteristics and readable range have been calculated and measured. The optimized position for a vehicle's RFID system has been observed in the inside of a side mirror and the calculated results show good agreement with the measured results.

In this paper, we propose the antenna to appropriate for a UWB communication system, and it meets characteristics for location recognition in predetermined range. Proposed tapered slot antenna was designed through the HFSS simulation tool of Ansys. Inc., it was produced by Taconic TRF-45 based on dielectric constant of 4.5, loss tangent 0.0035, thickness 1.62mm. The tapered slot antenna is analyzed the standing wave ratio and reflection coefficient, radiation pattern in the frequency domain. The impedance bandwidth range of the produced tapered slot antenna is from 3.8 ~ 8.9GHz to 5.1GHz, E-plane and H-plane radiation pattern meet directional antenna characteristics for indoor and outdoor location recognition in predetermined range. The antenna gain is 7.4 dBi(6GHz)in the simulation, the result of measurement demonstrated 7.4 dBi(6 GHz) of antenna maximum gain. Proposed tapered slot antenna meets UWB communication system but simulated and measured results were slightly different.

In this paper, we present a small size and multiband directional dipole antenna for mobile communication repeaters. In the omni-directional dipole antenna, a planar reflector under the dipole provides improved directivity in front-direction with wide beamwidth. In order to miniaturize the directive dipole, the size of the reflector is reduced. A vertical stub on the reflector is proposed to enhance the front-directivity of the radiation pattern and mitigate the backward radiation due to the reduced reflector. Furthermore, we use horizontal stubs on edge of vertical stub to obtain additional reduction of the antenna size. To meet the current demand of wireless communication service, the designed antenna shows wideband characteristic by employing electromagnetic coupled two-dipoles with dual-resonance frequencies.

A snaked-line array antenna is investigated for the use of high gain antenna at X-band frequency by studing its attenation constant and the radiation pattern. Attenuation constant which is equivalent to the radiation resistance varies roughly as a function of the square of sinh$\theta$a where sin$\theta$a corresponds to the amplitude of sinusoidal form of snaked-line. The directivity is determined by the number of snaked-line antennas and the periodic units of a snaked line.

The characteristics of the unstable impinging circular jet were investigated based on the frequency characteristics and the sound field of the impinging-tones. Two symmetric modes Si and S2, associated with low frequency and high frequency respectively, and one helical mode H have been observed by measuring frequency and phase-distribution around the jet. Radiation characteristics of impinging-tone were studied by measuring axial directivity. It was founded that the radiation patterns of symmetric and helical mode are different and it is toward the plate as the impinging distance increased. By estimating the convection velocity of the unstable jet, it was founded that the convection speed decreases with the frequency and its decreasing pattern varies with unstable modes S1, S2 and H, respectively.

A noble phased-array antenna of the circular form with microstrip slots was designed for steering the radiation beam and increasing the directivity and gain. The directivity and gain could be controlled, varying the number of slots and the radius of a circle, but here, the 40 .deg. beam scanning antenna system was achieved by tangentially arranging 4 mi- crostrip slots on a circumference and the analog phase shifter was used to adjust phase difference in the adjacent elements. And such a system has a microstrip configuration taking the effects of the line dispersion and discontinuities into account at 10 Ghz. The experimental results were fairly agreed with theoretical values, and this circular phased array had an improved performance over the rectangular phased array with 64-microstrip patches in a view of the number of array elements.

Patch antennas with an array of pins interconnecting the patch and the ground (Pin array patch antennas) are fabricated and their characteristics are measured. The radiation characteristics of pin array patch antennas are compared to those of conventional patch antennas. The suppressions of the radiation in horizontal directions in E-plane and H-plane are more than 10 dB and 4 dB, respectively. The forward radiation is increased, while the backward radiation is decreased. The directivity is improved because the half-power beamwidth of radiation patterns in both E-plane and H-plane is reduced. The resonance frequency of a pin array patch antenna increases as the pin radius of a pin amy patch antenna increases. An optimum pin radius of a pin array patch antenna exists for the maximum suppression of the radiation in horizontal directions.

In this paper, the effects of superstrate on the radiation patterns of dipole on cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were studied. Special constitutive relations are used to describe the bianisotropic properties of a material, such that the Green's function can be formulated. Electromagnetic fields and boundary conditions in spectral region were used to find Green's function of the spectral representation and electromagnetic fields in space region were derived through inverse Fourier transformations of fields in spectral region using asymptotic formula for far zone. Radiation characteristics of axial Hertzian dipole on superstrate loaded cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were obtained. The effects of bianisotropic superstrate on the radiation properties of the antennas including beam scanning, directivity enhancement, dark-region illumination, and on horizon radiation, are discussed.

This paper discussed on the directive gain improvement method of the U-type ultra wide-band(UWB) planar patch antenna model with CPW feeding. For directive gain improvement, the U-type printed patch antenna model with CPW feeding is reconstructed as a microstrip structure by adding a reflection plane with aperture slot. The reflection coefficient of the reconstructed antenna is less than -6.5 dB(VSWR < 3.3) to the characteristic impedance of $50.08{\Omega}$ and showed the directive radiation patterns with the directive gain of 7.5 dBi ~ 10.1 dBi, the front-back ratio of 17.8 dB ~ 28.7 dB and the range of -3dB radiation angle over ${\pm}30^{\circ}$ to the main beam direction of ${\theta}=0^{\circ}$.
