چکیده

This paper outlines the development of a new circular array of dual-polarised Fractalled Exponential Flare antennas for use as a wideband Direction-Finding (DF) array. The prototype array had a number of limitations which lead to the development of some novel array concepts to overcome these problems. These concepts include a high frequency inwardfacing array and a dual-polarised array that uses half the number of elements of the original prototype to achieve the same or better performance.

Null-steering LMS Dual-Polarised Adaptive Antenna Arrays for GPS

The implementation of a null-steering antenna array using dual polarised patch antennas is considered. Several optimality criterion for adjusting the array weights are discussed. The most effective criteria minimises the output power of the array subject to maintaining a right hand circular polarisation (RHCP) response on the reference antenna. An unconstrained form of this criteria is derived,...

European Conference on Antennas and Propagation 2011, 11-15 April 2011, Rome ON THE SMALL SCALE MODELLING ASPECTS OF DUAL CIRCULAR POLARISED LAND MOBILE SATELLITE MIMO CHANNELS IN LINE OF SIGHT AND IN VEHICLES

Introduction: A new modelling method suited to the dual circular polarised 2x2 (MIMO) channel applicable to land mobile satellite (LMS) communications in line of sight cases is presented. In this scenario, it is necessary to apply correlated fading to the co-polarised and cross-polarised channels separately in order to model the evident polarization multiplexing in such channels found from meas...

A Low Energy Consumption DOA Estimation Approach for Conformal Array in Ultra-Wideband

Most direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation approaches for conformal array suffer from high computational complexity, which cause high energy loss for the direction finding system. Thus, a low energy consumption DOA estimation algorithm for conformal array antenna is proposed in this paper. The arbitrary baseline direction finding algorithm is extended to estimate DOA for a conformal array in ul...

Design Analysis of Broadband Circularly Polarised Compact Microstrip Antenna for Wireless Applications

w w w . i j e c t . o r g Abstract GPS, Satellite phones, requires broadband, miniature size and circularly polarized antennas. Microstrip antennas have inherently narrow bandwidth, hence demanded enhanced bandwidth and size reduction. The present paper discusses the design of wideband compact and circular polarised MSA. The bandwidth of proposed antenna is enhanced by using EC stacked patch an...

Square Slot Antenna for Dual Wideband Wireless Communication Systems

A square slot antenna fed by two orthogonal feedlines is designed for dual polarized applications. The presented antenna has not only a dual operating band, but also a very wide bandwidth. The bandwidth is 91% in the first band and 40% in the second one. It can simultaneously serve most of the modern wireless communication applications that operate at 1.8, 1.9, 2.4, 5.2 and 5.8 GHz and require ...
