This subject addresses the issue related to Transmitters for the new communication standard, namely 5G. Indeed to respond to the problems of radio coverage, the speed of services as well as the rise in user demand, transmitters must have ideal characteristics to be able to meet these requirements. This chapter proposes in order to answer such a problem a block made up of a linear array of antennas has 4 elements and a transistor amplifier operating at the 28 GHz frequency band. The Design of the Block is done first by the design of the antenna then the design of the amplifier and finally the junction of the two devices with a matching network to therefore form the block of transmitters Speaking of the design of the antenna, the prepared antenna is a patch antenna with a patch shape excluding the classic shapes which is printed on a Rogers-Duriod 5880 substrate so the thickness is 0.127 mm, the linear antenna array proposed has a gain greater than 15 dB and a Good Bandwidth, the transistor amplifier is in turn printed on the same substrate has the same thickness to minimize the losses during the junction of this one with the antenna, this amplifier offers a higher gain than device 15 dB and therefore the Bandwidth is greater than 2 GHz, each transmitter has an input and output reflection coefficient of less than −10 db. The simulation of each transmitter is made with the CST-microwave software for the Antenna and the ADS (Advanced Design System) software for the amplifier and the Block PA-Antenna. It is important to note that the Block output impedance is 50 ohms making our device more practical and easily commercial.

In this paper, a rectangular patch antenna with slits for dual band capabilities is presented. The suggested antenna works for two frequencies which are at 2.5 GHz and 5.1 GHz. The first operating frequency is in the band of 2.3 to 2.7GHz with -16.8dB reflection coefficient at 2.5GHz resonating frequency, whereas the second band is 4.6 to 5.5GHz with -29.2dB reflection coefficient at 5.1GHz resonating frequency. The simulation results exhibit that, the suggested antenna works for dual band frequency having impedance bandwidth of 482 and 844 MHz respectively. The gain is observed as 2.9 dBi and 4.2 dBi of respective bands. The first frequency band can be used for Industrial, Scientific and Medical(ISM) applications and second frequency band can be used for C-band applications.

This paper presents a design of a wearable textile microstrip patch rectifying antenna (rectenna) array operating for wireless body area network (WBAN) at the center frequency, <em>f<sub>c</sub></em> of 2.45 GHz.  Precisely, jeans or denim with the relative permittivity, <sub> </sub>= 1.70 and thickness of 1.00 mm is chosen as a substrate attached to SheildIt Super as a conductive material with the thickness, <em>h</em> of 0.17 mm and conductivity of 6.67  10<sup>5</sup> S/m, respectively. In the first stage, a microstrip patch antenna array layout with the inset fed technique is designed and simulated by using the Keysight Advanced Design System (ADS) software.  In the second stage, a wearable textile microstrip patch antenna array is fabricated, integrated, and hidden inside the jeans fabric.  In the third stage, the rectifier circuit layout on the flame retardant-4    (FR-4) printed circuit board (PCB) with the dielectric constant,  = 4.7, thickness, <em>h</em> = 1.6 mm, and loss tangent, <em>δ</em> = 0.018 that can generate radio frequency-direct current (RF-DC) conversion is designed and simulated using the ADS software  Each simulation result and fabrication measurement shows that the designed antenna array characteristics are suitable for an industrial, scientific, and medical radio (ISM) band by having the reflection coefficient, <em>S</em><sub>11</sub> less than -10 decibel (dB) at the respective resonant frequency, <em>f<sub>r</sub>.</em>  Moreover, through simulation, the output DC voltage for the bridge rectifier circuit is from 132 mV to 5.01 V with the corresponding power conversion efficiency (PCE) between 3.48% and 50.20% whereas for the voltage doubler rectifier, the output DC voltage is from 417 mV to 2.91 V with the corresponding PCE between 34.78% and 53.56%, respectively.

This work builds a metamaterial (MTM) superstrate loaded on a patch of microstrip antenna for wireless communications. The MTM superstrate is made up of four G-shaped resonators on FR-4 substrate with a relative permittivity of 4.4 and has a total area of (8×16) mm2, and is higher than the patch. The MTM superstrate increases antenna gain while also raising the input reflection coefficient. When it is 9 mm above the patch, the gain increased from 3.28 dB to 6.02 dB, and when it is 7 mm above the patch, the input reflection coefficient was enhanced from -31.217 dB to -45.8 dB. When the MTM superstrate loaded antenna was compared to the traditional unloaded antenna, it was discovered that metamaterials have a lot of potential for improving antenna performance.

This article makes an effort to assess the performance of a stacked meandered patch antenna in proximity of multiple homogeneous human tissue models. Nowadays, many smart wireless gadgets are being used around human vicinity, hence the performance investigation of these wireless gadgets is major concern. This article discloses the performance of meandered patch antenna for in-body communication in the MICS band. The human tissue is considerably effected by the exposure of electromagnetic radiation. Performance improvement of patch antennas used in wireless gadgets is the key solution of the problem. This article presents the estimation of parameters of stacked meandered patch antennas; reflection coefficient, radiation pattern, directive gain and VSWR in proximity of multiple homogeneous human tissue models.

Complex anti-parity-time symmetric periodic lattices, in a wide frequency band, can act as unidirectional invisible media. The reflection from one end is suppressed while it is enhanced from the other. Furthermore, unidirectional laser points (ULPs) which correspond to the poles of reflection from one end, arise in the parameter space composed of the permittivity and angular frequency. The phase of the reflection coefficient changes sharply near the ULPs. Subsequently, large lateral shift which is proportional to the slope of phase could be induced for the reflected beam. The study may find great applications in unidirectional invisibility, unidirectional lasers and highly sensitive sensors.
