A new, bio-inspired printed monopole antenna (PMA) model is applied to monitor partial discharge (PD) activity in high voltage insulating systems. An optimized sensor was obtained by designing a PMA in accordance with the characteristics of the electromagnetic signal produced by PD. An ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna was obtained by applying the truncated ground plane technique. The patch geometry was bio-inspired by that of the Inga Marginata leaf, resulting in a significant reduction in size. To verify the operating frequency and gain of the PMA, measurements were carried out in an anechoic chamber. The results show that the antenna operating bandwidth covers most of the frequency range of PD occurrence. Moreover, the antenna presented a good sensitivity (mean gain of 3.63 dBi). The antenna performance was evaluated through comparative results with the standard IEC 60270 method. For this purpose, simultaneous tests were carried out in a PD generator arrangement, composed by an oil cell with point-to-plane electrode configurations. The developed PMA can be classified as an optimized sensor for PD detection and suitable for substation application, since it is able to measure PD radiated signals with half the voltage levels obtained from the IEC method and is immune to corona discharges.

AbstractIn this paper, a novel bird face microstrip printed monopole ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna is investigated. The proposed compact antenna consists of a ring-shaped with additional slot and slotted ground plane on FR4 material. The overall electrical dimension of the proposed antenna is 0.25 λ×0.36 λ×0.016 λ and is energized by microstrip feed line. The Computer Simulation Technology (CST) and the High Frequency Structural Simulator (HFSS) is applied in this analysis. The impedance bandwidth of the monopole antenna cover 3.1–12.3 GHz (9.2 GHz, BW) frequency range. The messurement displayed that the designed antenna achieved excellent gain and stable omnidirectional radiation patterns within the UWB. The maximum gain of 6.8 dBi and omnidirectional radiation pattern makes the proposed antenna that is suitable for UWB systems.

Abstract A microstrip line –fed broadband dual circular polarized, two port printed monopole antenna is presented. The antenna consists of a ground plane with arrow shaped stub at the corner and a pair of inverted L-shaped feed lines. The 3dB axial ratio bandwidth of the antenna is about 58%(1.7GHz-3.1GHz) in which the return loss and isolation are better than 10dB and 12dB respectively. A parametric study of proposed antenna’s geometric parameters is given for understanding of the antenna performance. The realize gain, reflection coefficient (S 11 ) and transmission coefficient (S 21 ) are higher than 1, 10 and 12dB respectively within the entire axial ratio bandwidth (ARBW).

A Printed monopole antenna with coplanar waveguide (CPW)- fed having circular shape patch to met the Ultra Wideband technology whose bandwidth is greater than 500MHz is proposed in this article. To enhance the bandwidth co-planar ground plane plays a great role for a frequency band which belong to mid band for 5G frequency spectrum. A good radiation pattern which is usually in 8shape can be achieved with this proposed antenna.
