Compact Microstrip Antenna With Metamaterial For Wideband Applications, Han Xiong, Jing-Song Hong, Ming-Tao Tan, Bing Li Jan 2013

Compact Microstrip Antenna With Metamaterial For Wideband Applications, Han Xiong, Jing-Song Hong, Ming-Tao Tan, Bing Li

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

An improved metamaterial antenna, with a compact size of 27.8 x 31.9 x 0.794 mm^3, fed by an offset-microstrip line, is proposed. The total size is slightly reduced and the measured impedance bandwidth is 4.08-7.83 GHz for a return loss of \mid S_{11}\mid < -10 dB. Compared with the original patch antenna, the bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 550 MHz broader and has a lower resonant frequency. The simulated gain of the antenna is more than 2 dB, with a peak of about 6 dB at 6.8 GHz. Moreover, the antenna has strong radiation in the horizontal direction for some specific applications within the entire band.


Compact Dual-Band Split-Ring Antenna For 2.4/5.2 Ghz Wlan Applications, Siddik Cumhur Başaran Jan 2012

Compact Dual-Band Split-Ring Antenna For 2.4/5.2 Ghz Wlan Applications, Siddik Cumhur Başaran

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents a compact dual-band printed antenna for 2.4/5.2 GHz WLAN applications. The radiating elements of the proposed antenna are composed of rectangular split-ring elements and metallic loadings placed appropriately between the rings. The antenna size is very compact (22 \times 26 \times 1.6 mm), and it can be integrated easily with other RF front-end circuits. It is demonstrated that the proposed antenna can completely cover the required bandwidths of IEEE 802.11b (2.4-2.484 GHz) and IEEE 802.11a (5.15-5.35 GHz) with satisfactory radiation characteristics. Analysis and design of the proposed antenna was carried out with the Ansoft highfrequency structure simulator. …


Dual-Band Split-Ring Antenna Design For Wlan Applications, S. Cumhur Başaran, Yunus E. Erdemli̇ Jan 2008

Dual-Band Split-Ring Antenna Design For Wlan Applications, S. Cumhur Başaran, Yunus E. Erdemli̇

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A dual-band microstrip antenna based on split-ring elements is introduced for WLAN (2.4/5.2 GHz) applications. The proposed split-ring antenna (SRA) has a compact novel design which provides about 2% impedance-bandwidth without a need for additional matching network. Analysis and design of the proposed microstrip antenna is carried out by means of full-wave simulators based on the finite-element method.


A Simple Formula Obtained Using Tabu Search Algorithm For The Radiation Efficiency Of A Resonant Rectangular Microstrip Antenna, Dervi̇ş Karaboğa, Keri̇m Güney Jan 1999

A Simple Formula Obtained Using Tabu Search Algorithm For The Radiation Efficiency Of A Resonant Rectangular Microstrip Antenna, Dervi̇ş Karaboğa, Keri̇m Güney

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A new simple formula for the radiation efficiency of a resonant rectangular microstrip patch antenna is presented. The formula is obtained by using a tabu search algorithm, which is a quite new optimization technique based on the principles of intelligent problem solving. The formula is valid for substrates with relative permittivities between 1 and 12.8 and for the complete range of thicknesses normally used. The results obtained by using this new simple formula are in conformity with those reported elsewhere. The formula can also be used in the calculation of the radiation efficiency of dipoles.
