In this study, an antenna system that could cover the 360ᵒ detection area using the microstrip method was created. The antenna design proposed uses the franklin collinear method with the addition of an array of arms to the left and right of the antenna and the addition of reflectors as a gain enhancer. The four antenna array units are combined using a power divider (combiner) as a unifying antenna. Antenna design with end fire radiation pattern cannot be used in receiving the ADS-B antenna system, because it works only in certain sectors with certain beamwidth, so it needs to be modified by adding an array of 4 units that make up 360◦ radiation of directional diagrams. The addition of the reflector is done by testing the optimum width. The most optimum width is obtained by the width of the side addition on the side of the antenna aperture cross section width of 80 mm. Based on the results of experiments that have been carried out for the design of receiver antennas for ADS-B applications that are required in the form of a radiation pattern in all directions using the reflector technique, the most appropriate gain increase is to use a phase difference for the antennas that are closest both left and right by 90o in ¼ λ conditions in the integration process using a 4 way power combiner. Response return loss at frequency 1.0752 GHz and 1.109 GHz is -15 dB, it means antenna has 33.8 MHz bandwidth with maximum response return loss at -23.22 dB and gain of 7.586 dBi, this antenna design is very suitable for use in the ADS-B application. Design and simulation at this antenna used CST software.

Inefficient utilization of licensed spectrum bands and overcrowding of unlicensed bands are caused due to the spectrum shortage and growing demand for wireless communication. The wireless spectrum is burdened due to the host centric traditional approaches for data detection and recovery in the IP-based networks that. The service or data is retrieved from the service provider through a new routing path every time the mobile service requester initiates a request. The vacant licensed channels are utilized appropriately enabling opportunistic and efficient band usage of the spectrum using Cognitive Radio (CR) technology. Wireless communication with low cost, compact antenna element, high gain, wideband and low profile can be performed using patch antenna. Patch is a significant aspect of antenna design. The antenna design parameters are understood by varying the patch. A good return loss can be achieved by enhancing the radiation pattern on changing the patch dimensions. High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) is used for simulation and analysis of the circular patch antenna. The return loss, radiation efficiency, Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) and radiation pattern of the antenna are analyzed.

In recent times rectangular patch antenna design has become the most innovative and popular subject due to its advantages, such as being lightweight, conformal, ease to fabricate, low cost and small size. In this paper design of aperture coupled microstrip patch antenna (MSA) on high index semiconductor material coupled with micromachining technique for performance enhancement is discussed. The performance in terms of return loss bandwidth, gain, cross-polarization and antenna efficiency is compared with standard aperture coupled antenna. Micromachining underneath of the patch helps in to reduce the effective dielectric constant, which is desirable for the radiation characteristics of the patch antenna. Improvement 36 percent and 18 percent in return loss bandwidth and gain respectively achieved using micromachined aperture coupled feed patch, which is due to the reduction in losses, suppression of surface waves and substrate modes.

This research aimed at investigating the performance of plasma windowing concept in terms of radiation pattern, gain and return loss. The antenna structure consists of 12 tubes of commercial fluorescent lamps that containing the mixture of mercury vapour and argon gas which upon electrification, forms plasma. After get sufficient voltage the gas inside the fluorescent tube will ionize to plasma and formed plasma column. When all of the tubes surrounding the antenna are electrified, the radiation is trapped inside. By leaving one or more of the tubes in a non-electrified state, apertures are formed in the plasma shield which allows radiation to escape. The plasma frequency in this experiment is equal to 5.634e11 Hz. This antenna design at 4.9 GHz.

Abstract In the proposed research paper, a novel compact, ultra-wideband electronically switchable dual-band omnidirectional to directional radiation pattern microstrip planar printed rectangular monopole antenna (PRMA) has been presented. The proposed antenna system has an optimum size of 0.26 λ0 × 0.28 λ0. A combination of radiators, reflectors, and two symmetrical grounds does place on the same layer of the rectangular microstrip PRMA. The frequency agility and the radiation pattern from omnidirectional to directional are achieved using two SMD PIN diodes (SMP1340-04LF). The directional radiation patterns with 180° phase shifts are achieved at the C-band frequency spectrum. The parametric study of the proposed antenna system was performed for different design parameters, and the antenna characteristics were analyzed. An antenna prototype is fabricated using the printed circuit board etching method by using RMI UV laser etching and cutting tools. The measurements of the proposed antenna are conducted in an anechoic chamber to validate the simulations. There are three states of operations due to two SMD PIN diodes being used in switching circuits. In state-I, the proposed antenna radiates at 6.185 GHz (5.275–6.6 75 GHz) in the Ф = 270° direction with a gain of 2.1 dBi, whereas in state-II, it radiates at 5.715 GHz (5.05–6.8 GHz) in the Ф = 90° direction with a gain of 2.1 dBi. In state-III, the antenna exhibits the X-band frequency with center frequency at 9.93 GHz (8.845–10.49 GHz), and the omnidirectional pattern offers a gain of 4.1 dBi. The features of the proposed antenna are suitable for high-speed wireless sensor network communication in industries such as chemical reactors in oil and gas and pharmaceuticals. It is also well suited for IoT and 5G-sub-6-GHz applications.
