Abstract A compact co-planar waveguide (CPW) fed planar elliptical antenna has been designed and presented for super wideband (SWB) characteristics. The designed antenna has an overall size of 30 × 30 × 1.57 mm3, and it consists of an elliptical patch radiator fed using a modified 50 Ω CPW-fed tapered microstrip feed line. By using a semi-ring shaped structure with a tapered feed line, an impedance bandwidth of 180.66% has been observed from 1.27 to 25 GHz with a ratio bandwidth of 19.68:1. To validate simulation results, the designed antenna has been fabricated and measured, and a reasonable agreement has been observed between simulated and measured results. It has also been observed that the designed antenna offers good radiation properties over the entire operating bandwidth. The simulated average gain and radiation efficiency of the proposed SWB antenna is noted to be 4.3 dBi and 95.77%, respectively; while the measured average gain and radiation efficiency is 3.8 dBi and 94.69%, respectively.

Abstract A circularly polarized ring cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna (ring-CDRA) of wideband impedance bandwidth is presented in this article. The proposed ring CDRA consist of an inverted rectangular (tilted rectangular) shaped aperture and inverted L-shaped slotted microstrip feed line. The tilted rectangular shaped aperture and inverted L-shaped microstrip feed line generate two-hybrid mode HEM11δ and HEM12δ while ring CDRA and slotted microstrip feed line are used for the enhancement of impedance bandwidth. The proposed ring CDRA is resonating between 6.08 and 12.2 GHz with 66.95% (6120 MHz) impedance bandwidth. The axial ratio (AR) bandwidth of 6.99% (780 MHz) is obtained between 10.76 and 11.54 GHz with a minimum AR value of 0.2 dB at a frequency of 11 GHz. The proposed geometry of ring CDRA has been validated with measurement performed by VNA and anechoic chamber. The operating range of the proposed radiator is useful for different applications in X-band.

A modified proximity-coupled microstrip patch antenna with broad impedance bandwidth is proposed by incorporating proximity-coupled patch antenna into the rectangular open-ended microstrip feed line on a cavity structure. First we design a proximity-coupled microstrip antenna to have a wide bandwidth in the lower band centered at 7 GHz using a cavity-backed ground. To broaden the bandwidth of the antenna to the upper band, we then apply a rectangular open-ended microstrip feed line, adjusting the relative position to the cavity to generate an additional resonance close to 10 GHz. The combination of lower and upper band design results in a broadband antenna with dimensions of 30 mm × 30 mm × 9 mm (0.9λ<sub>0</sub> × 0.9λ<sub>0</sub> × 0.27λ<sub>0</sub>) is designed where λ<sub>0</sub> corresponds to the free space wavelength at a center frequency of 9 GHz. The measurement results verify the broad impedance bandwidth (VSWR ≤ 2) of the antenna at 77% (5.6–12.6 GHz) while the broadside gain is maintained between 6 dBi and 8 dBi within the operational broad bandwidth.

This paper presents the design of a bidirectional same-sense circularly polarized (CP) antenna that uses metasurfaces. The antenna consists of two metasurfaces, each comprising an array of 2 × 4 corner truncated patches placed back-to-back on the top and bottom of the antenna. In addition, a ground plane with an etched slot is sandwiched between the substrates at the front and back, and the feed line is a 50 Ω coplanar waveguide. The antenna radiates same-sense right-handed CP waves in both the front and back directions and has overall dimensions of 48 mm × 24 mm × 3.048 mm (0.91λo × 0.45λo × 0.05λo at 5.7 GHz). The measured reflection coefficient for |S11| < -10 dB yields an impedance bandwidth of 5.21–6.26 GHz (18.4%) and an axial ratio (AR) bandwidth of 5.36–6 GHz (11.2%) for both front and back directions. The antenna gain is 3–5.29 dBic for both directions and has a radiation efficiency of >96% within its AR bandwidth.

This paper portrays the design of a compact square-shaped microstrip broadband antenna using ground slots. Polygon shaped slots are placed on the ground under the feed line for bandwidth improvement. Similarly, rectangular slots are placed on the square patch for gain enhancement. Effect of these slots on the performance of the antenna in terms of impedance bandwidth, gain and directivity are studied.  Results of simulation tests show that a ground slot with proper dimensions placed under the feed line can improve the impedance matching and hence increase the bandwidth without affecting much the performance of the antenna. This compact antenna of size 9.098 x 9.098 mm can be very useful for applications where size is a major constraint. Simple microstrip feed is used to feed the patch. The percentage bandwidth of this antenna is 75.57 %.

This paper is devoted to a novel Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) single-feed circularly polarized microstrip EBG antenna with compact size proposed for C-Band applications. The antenna structure will include eight slits introduced at the boundary and the corners in the radiating square patch with a cross-slot at the center. The provided study will effectively approve the various proposed structures and interest occupied by these types of antennas in the enhancement of output parameters (gain, directivity, radiation efficiency, and bandwidth) without much affecting the operating bandwidth at C-band. At first, the concept and the realization of a directive and circularly polarized antenna using an electromagnetic band gap material whose circular polarization is generated by the structure itself is discussed. The analysis and simulation results are presented for an antenna operating at 6.1 GHz using computer Simulation Technologies (CST). Furthermore, the new compact circular polarized EBG antenna, compared to experimental results, will confirm the pre-studied goal of these kinds of antennas such as radiation efficiency, polarization purity, radiation efficiency, high directivity, and gain.

Abstract This paper presents a patch loaded slot antenna for super wideband (SWB) application. To obtain SWB characteristic, the proposed antenna geometry combined a rectangular slot and an overlying patch excited by a trident shaped microstrip feed. It is observed that the hybrid nature of the proposed antenna effectively enhances the impedance bandwidth up to 120%, by combining the resonance of both patch and slot. Besides, it is investigated that after converting the conventional tapered feed into the trident shape feed, the impedance bandwidth is increased further from 120% to 167% ranging between 1.25 to 15 GHz. Moreover, one U-shaped slot and two L-shaped stubs are inserted into the antenna design to introduce the dual-band rejection property from 1.8 to 2.4 GHz (GSM 1800, Wi-Fi 2.1 and 2.4) and 3.1 to 4.2 GHz (WiMAX and C-band). Further, to validate the simulation results a prototype is fabricated and tested. The measured result shows that the proposed antenna offered an impedance bandwidth of 170.3% from 1.2 GHz to 15 GHz.

Simulation Results

This study proposes a new design of wide bandwidth microstrip antennas using dual feed line techniques. To obtain the optimal impedance bandwidth (IBW) and Axial Ratio Bandwidth (ARBW), several iterations were performed by controlling the dimensions and length of the dual feed line. From the simulation results, the proposed antenna obtained IBW of 0.4GHz or 17% and ARBW of 0.38GHz or 15% at an operating frequency of 2.5 GHz. The gain of the proposed antenna was 5.73dB with a directional radiation pattern. The dual feedline technique successfully improved IBW up to 254.16% compared with the single feed technique. This study would be useful especially for bandwidth optimization of microstrip antennas.
