A low-profile repeater antenna with parasitic elements for on-on-off WBAN applications is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of a planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA), two parasitic elements, and a ground plane with a slot. Due to the slot, the impedance matching of the resonance formed by the PIFA is improved, which makes the proposed antenna operate in the 5.8 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band. To cover the 5.2 GHz wireless local area network (WLAN) band, a dual resonance characteristic is realized by the slot and the two parasitic elements. The first coupling between the PIFA and the slot not only makes the slot operate as a resonator, but also forms secondary coupling between the slot and the two parasitic elements. The two parasitic elements operate as an additional resonator due to secondary coupling. The antenna has the enhanced near surface radiation in the 5.8 GHz ISM band due to addition of the slot and radiation toward off-body direction in the 5.2 GHz WLAN band. In order to evaluate antenna performance considering the human body effect, the antenna characteristics on a human equivalent phantom are analyzed.

Abstract This paper presents a low-profile multi-slotted patch antenna for long term evolution (LTE) and fifth-generation (5G) communication applications. The studied antenna comprised of a stepped patch and a ground plane. To attain the required operating band, three slots have been inserted within the patch. The insertion of the slots enhances the capacitive effect and helps the prototype antenna to achieve an operating band ranging from 3.15 to 5.55 GHz (S11 ≤−10 dB), covering the N77/N78/N79 for sub-6 GHz 5G wireless communications and LTE bands of 22/42/43/46. The wideband antenna presented in this paper offers omnidirectional stable radiation patterns, good gains, and efficiency with a compact size which make this design an ideal contender for wireless fidelity (WiFi), wireless local area network (WLAN), LTE, and sub-6 GHz 5G communication applications.

A compact dual-frequency antenna with enhanced bandwidth is proposed in this paper. Dual-frequency operation is realized by cutting a slot in the elliptical patch, and bandwidth enhancement is achieved by using a partial ground plane. Compared with the conventional half-wave antenna, the antenna has a compact size of 24 × 20 mm2, which equals to 0.38 λ1× 0.31 λ1(λ1, the guided wavelength at the first resonant frequency). The dual-frequency antenna with a partial rectangle ground and a partial arc-shaped ground is investigated for impedance matching. Simulated results indicate that the antenna with a partial arc-shaped ground can obtain a larger bandwidth for two bands than that with a partial rectangle ground. Experimental results show that the antenna with a partial arc-shaped ground can operate in 2.4 and 5 GHz bands, which covers the 2.4, 5.2 and 5.8 GHz for wireless local area network. The impedance bandwidths of two bands are 9.5 and 13.6%, respectively. Also, good radiation performances have been achieved at two bands.

AbstractIn this work, simple, low profile, compact quarter-mode substrate-integrated waveguide (QMSIW)-based antennas are proposed for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) at 5.2/5.5 GHz and Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) at 5.8 GHz, respectively. By implementing QMSIW technique, the electrical size of the antenna is reduced up to 1/4th of the conventional circular SIW cavities. Thanks to the quarter mode concept, the antenna size is reduced significantly by preserving its dominant mode. The resonant frequency of the dominant mode TM010 is independently tuned at 5.2, 5.5, and 5.8 GHz after loading the QMSIW cavity with metalized via holes, subsequently. The on-body performance of the antenna is verified on pork tissues at 5.8 GHz and it is found to be insensitive with respect to surroundings. The measured gain and simulated efficiency of the proposed antenna at 5.8 GHz in free space are 4.8 dBi and 92%, while in the proximity of pork tissues values are 3.25 dBi and 57%, respectively. Moreover, the measurement results demonstrate a good matching with the simulation results.

Noise Amplifier

A fully integrated low noise amplifier (LNA) for wireless local area network (WLAN) application is presents. The circuit is fabricated in 0.18μm SiGe BiCMOS technology. For the low noise figure, a feedback path is introduced into the traditional inductively degenerated common emitter cascade LNA, which decreases the inductance for input impedance matching, therefore reduces the thermal noise caused by loss resistor. Impedance matching and noise matching are achieved at the same time. Measured results show that the resonance point of the output resonance network shifts from 2.4GHz to 2.8GHz, due to the parasitic effects at the output. At the frequency of 2.8GHz, the LNA achieves 2.2dB noise figure, 19.4dB power gain. The core circuit consumes only 13mW from a 1.8V supply and occupies less than 0.5mm2.

This paper presents a multiple-input and multiple-output dual-element planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) array for broadband operation covering the HIgh PERformance radio Local Area Network/2 (5.2 GHz/5.6 GHz), Wireless Local Area Network (5.2 GHz/5.8 GHz), and the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (5.5 GHz) bands for the compact wireless communication devices. The antenna dimension is reduced substantially with a miniature ground plane. The PIFA array provides a large bandwidth (670 MHz) and a high isolation between its ports less than −26 dB. The proposed antenna has been analyzed and designed with Ansoft HFSS v.11. Then a prototype was fabricated and tested for its performance in terms of bandwidth, S-parameters, and radiation pattern. A parametric study is made to analyze the effect of different PIFA parameters on the operating frequency and the S-parameters. The diversity performances are evaluated using computer simulation technology microwave studio (CSTMWS). The broadband performance and the high isolation are achieved in both simulation and measurement.

This paper proposes a dual band reconfigurable microstrip slotted antenna for supporting the wireless local area network (WLAN) and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) applications, providing coverage where both directive and omni-directive radiations are needed. The design consists of a feedline, a ground plane with two slots and two gaps between them to provide the switching capability and a 1.6 mm thick flame retardant 4 (FR4) substrate (dielectric constant Ɛ=4.3, loss tangent δ=0.019), modeling an antenna size of 30x35x1.6 mm3. The EM simulation, which was carried out using the connected speech test (CST) studio suite 2017, generated dual wide bands of 40% (2-3 GHz) with -55 dB of S11 and 24% (5.2-6.6 GHz) higher than its predecessors with lower complexity and -60 dB of S11 in addition to the radiation pattern versatility while maintaining lower power consumption. Moreover, the antenna produced omnidirectional radiation patterns with over than 40% bandwith at 2.4 GHz and directional radiation patterns with 24% bandwith at the 5.8 GHz band. Furthermore, a comprehensive review of previously proposed designs has also been made and compared with current work.

Abstract We present the design of a compact tri-band adhesive planar antenna which operates as a gateway for biomedical applications. Operating in the Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band (2.4–2.5 GHz), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.15.6 Wireless Body Area Network Ultra-Wide Band (WBAN UWB) (3.1–10.6 GHz) and the IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network or WLAN (WLAN) band (5.15–5.725 GHz), the antenna is useful in the context of body-signal monitoring. The ISM band is used for in-body communication with the implanted medical devices, whereas the WBAN and WLAN bands are for off-body communication with the base station and central medical server, respectively. We have designed our antenna to operate at 2.34/3.20/4.98 GHz. The simulation results show that the antenna has 10 dB bandwidths of 420 MHz (2.07–2.49 GHz), 90 MHz (3.16–3.25 GHz), and 460 MHz (4.76–5.22 GHz) to cover the ISM, WBAN, and WLAN bands, respectively. The proposed antenna is printed on a flexible Rogers RT/duroid 5880 epoxy substrate and it occupies a compact volume of 24 × 24 × 0.787 mm. The designed antenna is simulated using HFSS and the fabricated antenna is experimentally validated by adhering it to a human skin. The simulated and measured performance of the antenna confirms its omnidirectional radiation patterns and high return losses at the three resonant bands.
