Comparison of Evolutionary Optimization Algorithms for FM-TV Broadcasting Antenna Array Null Filling n

Broadcasting antenna array null filling is a very challenging problem for antenna design optimization. This paper compares five antenna design optimization algorithms (Differential Evolution, Particle Swarm, Taguchi, Invasive Weed, Adaptive Invasive Weed) as solutions to the antenna array null filling problem. The algorithms compared are evolutionary algorithms which use mechanisms inspired by ...

An application of smart antenna systems for archiving networks in TV studios

Data archiving networks and electronic media libraries for video and audio broadcasting have gained a large interest recently. This paper proposes the use of smart (adaptive) antennas for HIPERLAN/2 (HIgh PERformance Radio Local Area Network/2) in order to increase the data rate and user capacity targeting wired LAN replacement in modern TV broadcasting studio environments. Spatial channel mode...

Flat-plate Pentagonal Monopole Antenna for Laptop Wireless Communication and Mobile Tv Reception

An improved novel printed wideband flat-plate monopole antenna is presented. The proposed antenna consists of a pentagonal monopole embedded in a corner notch in the antenna ground plane part. Simulated and measured results of the input return loss for the proposed antenna are in good agreement. The antenna has been shown to operate satisfactorily in the 0.47–6 GHz frequency range, and is there...

Effects of Received Power Imbalance on the Diversity Gain of a Digital TV MRC Array Antenna

This paper presents a basic investigation of the power imbalance problem with regard to maximum ratio combining (MRC) array antennas for digital TV broadcast reception. First, the relationship between the decrease in the diversity gain and reduction in the received power was investigated using two-element and four-element dipole array antennas by means of a Monte Carlo simulation. The relations...
