چکیده

A compact MIMO antenna solution, the intelligent quadrifilar helix antenna for the IEEE 802.11n standard is proposed. Analysis has been made with regard to design considerations and preliminary narrowband measurements have been carried out to evaluate its capacity potential in comparison to conventional spatially separated linear antennas. The results indicate that there is comparable capacity potential with nearly 70% reduction in size.

L-Band Compact Printed Quadrifilar Helix Antenna with ‘Iso-Flux’ Radiating Pattern for Stratospheric Balloons Telemetry

Quadrifilar helix antennas have very interesting characteristics. For instance, by selecting properly the height and number of turns of the helix, one can achieve a radiation pattern of so-called ‘iso-flux’ shape with high gain at low elevation. Such a pattern enables to improve the link budget for stratospheric balloons telemetry as the gain of the antenna compensate for the free space propaga...
