The feasibility of small linear antenna for near range wireless communications was studied. The requirement of the system are frequency range 9∼12 MHz and antenna size 15 cm. The communication range is about 15 m. The antenna input impedance is very small radiation resistance and very large capacitive reactance. The lossless impedance matching is nearly impossible, therefore lossy matching is considered. The antenna has very low radiation efficiency. The near field calculation has a large uncertainty, but the results can be used as the guideline of a small linear antenna system for a near range wireless communication.

This letter proposes a tapered stacked microstrip antenna for application in small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which has advantages in mountainous terrains. With its tapered structure and increased bandwidth designed to operate at the resonance frequency of 2.4 GHz, the proposed antenna improves directivity, accuracy, and precision of small UAVs. The test flight results show the proposed tapered antenna has a three times higher impedance capability of 350 MHz based on VSWR<2. The transmission pattern is also more reliable than that of previous antenna designs.

In this paper, a printed small Ultra-Wideband (UWB) antenna with directive radiation characteristics based on combination of electric-magnetic radiators is presented. The combinations of the electric and magnetic type antennas result in the directive radiation patterns for all observed UWB frequency band. Simple combination of dipole antenna and loop antenna is also presented to show that proper configuration of electric radiator and magnetic radiator can produces directive radiation characteristics. The target frequency is from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz with size of $15\;mm{\times}31\;mm$. A proto-type of the combined antenna is simulated, fabricated and measured. Simulation and experimental results of input impedance and gain characteristics of the proposed antenna are presented. There are good agreements between the simulated and measured VSWR curves. Also, the results show the directive radiation characteristics with small antenna form factor over the target frequency range.

In this paper, a novel compact and wideband fylfot-shaped planar monopole antenna is proposed. The fylfot-shaped is suggested to reduce the volume of a general crossed planar monopole antenna. The volume of the proposed antenna is about 1/4 of a general crossed planar monopole antenna under the conditions where the wideband characteristics are maintained. This technique is suitable for the design of wideband planar monopole antenna which needed a small volume.

In this paper, a microstrip antenna with a small loop consisting of the left and right parallel plate to load capacitor is proposed. It is obtained the improved small size than the antenna of the transformed Uh and the antenna of the left and right parallel plate to load capacitor on QMSA. Equivalent circuit of transmission line model is designed to find more accurate resonant frequency. Also, the designed and fabricated antenna can receive both vertically and horizontally polarized waves to operating frequency of 1.5GHz. Therefore proposed antenna is available as a small antenna for wireless communication and will be quite useful for indoor communication

This study presents a dual-band polarization-reconfigurable antenna that comprises a large square patch with a pair of corner-cut edges and two small square patches with a shorting via. Two PIN diodes are located between the large square patch and two small square patches. Depending on the bias state applied to the two PIN diodes, each small patch may be disconnected or connected to the large square patch. As a result, the proposed antenna can provide polarization reconfigurability between two orthogonal linear polarizations. Further, the proposed antenna operates at 2.51 GHz and 2.71 GHz. From the measured results, the proposed antenna shows a 10 dB bandwidth of 2.39% (2.49-2.55 GHz) and 2.58% (2.68-2.75 GHz). In this work, the frequency ratio can be easily controlled by changing the size of the small patch.

A small size broadband microstrip patch antenna with small ground plane has been fabricated using MEMS. Multiple layer substrates are used to realize small size and broadband characteristics. The microstrip patch is divided into 3 pieces and each patch is connected to each other using a metal microstrip line. The fabrication process is simple and only one mask is needed. Two types of microtrip antennas are fabricated. Type A is the micros trip antenna with metal lines and type B is the microstrip antenna without metal lines. The size of proposed microstip antenna is $8^{*}12^{*}2mm^{3}$ and the experimental results show that the antenna type A and type B have the bandwidth of 420 MHz at 5.3 GHz and 480 MHz at 5.66 GHz, respectively.

In this paper, a rectangular patch antenna is miniaturized by changing tile middle of patch into narrow microstrip line except the edges of the patch where the fringing field occurs. Miniaturizing rate, gain, radiation patterns of suggested antennas were compared with general square microstrip antenna by using simulator Ensemble. As a result, it reduces the size of antenna by 30% and improves the characteristic of X pol as a advantage while it reduces gain and bandwidth.
