Origami Antennas For Novel Reconfigurable Communication Systems, Xueli Liu Mar 2018

Origami Antennas For Novel Reconfigurable Communication Systems, Xueli Liu

FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Antennas play a crucial role in communication systems since they are the transmitting/receiving elements that transition information from guided transmission to open-space propagation. Antennas are used in many different applications such as aerospace communications, mobile phones, TVs and radios. Since the dimensions of antennas are usually physically proportional to the wavelength at their operating frequencies, it is important to develop large antennas and arrays that can be stowed compactly and easily deployed. Also, it is important to minimize the number of antennas on a platform by developing multifunctional antennas.

The first aim of this research is to develop new deployable, …


Design Of A Wideband Dual-Polarized Cavity Backed Slot Antenna, Rajesh Paryani Jan 2010

Design Of A Wideband Dual-Polarized Cavity Backed Slot Antenna, Rajesh Paryani

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A new technique for designing wideband dual-polarized cavity-backed slot antennas is presented. The structure is in the form of a double-resonant, dual-polarized slot antenna backed by a shallow substrate integrated cavity with a depth of approximately one tenth the free space wavelength. The presence of the cavity behind the slot enhances the antenna's directivity and reduces the possibility of surface wave propagation in the antenna substrate when the element is used in an array environment. Moreover, the dual-polarized nature of this radiating element may be exploited to synthesize any desired polarization (vertical, horizontal, RHCP, or LHCP). The double-resonant behavior observed …
